Karachi:
In line with its commitment to supporting Pakistan’s growing export economy, Gul Aviation — the cargo handling arm of the renowned Gul Group — is focusing on maximizing export loads aboard Air China’s cargo flights operating from Karachi.
Air China resumed cargo acceptance on April 1st and currently operates three weekly flights on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. These flights offer direct connectivity from Karachi to Beijing, with seamless onward connections to 56 air cargo destinations worldwide. The majority of these destinations are located across China, the Far East, and Australia, opening vast opportunities for Pakistani exporters.
The cargo services for Air China in Pakistan are handled by Gul Aviation, a trusted name in aviation services. Speaking about the renewed cargo activity, Mr. Imran Peracha, CEO of Gul Group, expressed strong interest in ensuring maximum cargo loads are achieved on each flight, underlining the pivotal role of air exports in strengthening Pakistan’s economy.
“Air export business is one of the key drivers of economic growth in Pakistan,” said Mr. Peracha, highlighting the significance of the resumed operations. Textiles, seafood, pharmaceuticals, and other perishables remain the primary cargo commodities transported through Air China’s network, reflecting Pakistan’s robust industrial and agricultural output.
With these operations back in full swing, Gul Aviation and Air China aim to provide Pakistani businesses with faster, more reliable access to global markets, reinforcing trade ties and supporting the country’s export-driven growth.
