Airfreight forwarders play a critical role in maintaining supply chain stability, especially during periods of frequent disruption. This perspective comes from an industry veteran with more than two decades of experience across aviation, logistics, and humanitarian aid. The Airforwarders Association (AfA) recognizes this evolving landscape and is reportedly focusing on three key priorities to support its members and the broader air cargo sector.
For freight forwarders and operations managers, this underscores the increasing importance of their expertise in managing complex air cargo movements. Their ability to adapt to sudden changes, secure capacity, and optimize routing becomes even more valuable when traditional supply chains are strained. The AfA's strategic evolution suggests potential new resources, advocacy, or best practices that could further empower forwarders in their daily operations and client service.
