In this episode, Zach Meese, Business Development Manager at Airfreight Express Global, unpacks the dynamic world of air freight logistics—from life-or-death medical shipments to navigating complex international cargo moves.
Zach dives into the flexibility of air freight, debunking myths that it's always cost-prohibitive and showing how businesses can use tailored solutions to avoid costly delays. He shares eye-opening stories, including organizing charter flights for organ transplants and leveraging strategic air routes to optimize global supply chains.
He also explores the growing potential of air freight in emerging markets like Colombia and Africa, where infrastructure challenges make it a game-changer for transporting raw materials.
