Teleport CEO on freighter fleet growth

Cargo Facts Connect

In this episode, hear from Pete Chareonwongsak, chief executive of Teleport, the logistics unit of Capital A, as the company unveiled its first A321 freighter on lease from BBAM in a ceremony in Kuala Lumpur on July 12.

Teleport says it already is the largest air logistics network in Southeast Asia but has ambitious plans for further growth with its incoming fleet of freighters.

“This freighter allows us to carry more, do more, and cover more,” Chareonwongsak said in a speech at the ceremony. “It used to take us thirty minutes to load 500 pieces — now it will take us just two minutes. We can carry more: from small things to big things; from dangerous things to live things.

“This freighter will cover more to connect the rest of Southeast Asia better and take Southeast Asia to Asia Pacific,” he said. “This is why the A321 freighter is the best in its class.”
