    FLEXPORT, the first tech-enabled freight forwarder and customs broker, will launch its first weekly cargo flight between Los Angeles and Hong Kong in April.

    The service will provide end-to-end freight forwarding service to manufacturers, exporters and trading companies based in Southern China, Greater China and Asia Pacific.

    Integrating the air freight service with its online supply chain management platform, the company intends to provide more comprehensive, efficient and reliable freight forwarding service to customers amidst air freight space constraints in the market.

    Operated by Boeing 747-400 freighters, the private air freight service will feature two flights per week, with a total capacity of 1,600 tonnes of cargo per month. To cater to the rise of demand during peak season, three flights will be operated each week, increasing total cargo capacity to 2,400 tonnes per month.

    At the initial stage, the private cargo flights will target manufacturers, exporters, and trading companies in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and other major cities in Southern China, as well as importers based in North America.

    "The rapid growth of e-commerce, shortened consumer goods cycle and the growing demand of consumer products have led to the rise of demand for more flexible and efficient air freight services," said senior vice president Neel Jones Shah in a statement.
