Perishable air cargo from Pakistan from Ibrahim Logistics: Air freight for mangoes, fruit, vegetables, flowers and chilled goods, with cold-chain handling.
Perishable cargo needs speed and a cold chain. Air freight takes mangoes, cherries, vegetables, flowers and chilled products to the Gulf, the UK and Europe within a day or two, while the produce is still fresh.
We book the airline, coordinate packing, cold-room storage and the phytosanitary certificate, and clear the cargo at the airport. We also advise on whether air or sea reefer suits your product and margin.
