General Assembly 2015

One year after its foundation, the Air Cargo Community is well-established in the market.

The achievements are impressive: just over a year after its inaugural general assembly, the Air Cargo Community Frankfurt has not only produced the first results, it has also strongly established itself at the location. The newly-created, dynamic external image is representative of how the association is approaching the major air cargo themes: Fast, Reliable, Active.

This overall positive summary was drawn by the representatives of the around 30 member companies present at this year’s general assembly that took place on 1 July 2015 in Frankfurt and was chaired by Chairman of the Board Dr. Karl-Rudolf Rupprecht.

But as impressive as the initial results are, they are no excuse to sit back and rest. On the contrary, now it is necessary to take advantage of the momentum of recent months in order to become even more involved. There is general agreement that, in addition to further intensification of internal and external communication, the key themes must be set in the areas of location marketing and processes as well as perishables and special transports.

Particular attention will be given to pharmaceuticals transports in order to gain additional business in this field and, at the same time, further strengthen the position of Frankfurt as the leading European pharmaceuticals hub.

Another focus of the Air Cargo Community is to recruit more members. Because, with an even broader membership base, the community can devote itself to the important topics with additional intensity and further know-how, and can launch further projects and implement them successfully.
