Africa air freight demand surges [Business Africa]

Africa’s freight market is well on course. The continent has seen a significant increase in demand this year compared to the same period in 2018.

How far will the trade war between the United States and China go? Figures published this month by the International Air Transport Association on world freight market data show a contraction in demand this year compared to 2018.

A contraction that has not affected Africa and China, however. African carriers recorded the strongest growth among all regions in August 2019, with an 8 per cent increase in demand compared to the same period last year.
