Karachi airport to have country’s largest cargo handling warehouse

30th January, 2017

KARACHI: Gerry's dnata, a joint venture of the dnata and the Gerry's Group, is set to establish the country's largest cargo handling warehouse at the Quaid-e-Azam International Airport in Karachi, it has been learnt.

The facility will be the first and only custom-built warehouse in Pakistan with a state-of-the-art material handling system. The warehouse is based on a 75,000 sqft area and will feature state-of-the-art technology to handle cargo of all company's customer airlines. "We have invested a significant amount in the development of this facility which will lead to expanding our storage capacity from 36,000 to 72,000 sqft," said Syed Haris Raza, Vice President Pakistan for Gerry's dnata. "We have also designed dedicated centres for cold storage and valuable item storage within the warehouse. These are just some of the features of the new warehouse that our customers can expect." Raza also spoke about the company's future plans, saying: "Our vision is to deliver service in a timely and safe manner, and move towards consistent customer satisfaction and growth. "In recent years, we have become more transformational with our approach in terms of responding to industrial changes and customer demands."

Raza was also very optimistic about the prospect of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). He was of the view that possibilities with the CPEC were endless and the aviation industry had already experienced a glimpse of it with the positive influx of increased passengers coming into Pakistan. He added: "This is positive news for the economy in general and of course, the aviation industry in particular. The options of diverse investments, tourism, enhanced security and safety will boost the economy and aviation market. Thus, the success of CPEC will help reduce challenges the industry is facing." Gerry's dnata was the first venture of dnata outside the UAE. The joint partner, Gerry's international, is one of the largest groups maintaining the biggest corporate travel wing in Pakistan.

Gerry's dnata's footprint has now spread to seven airports across Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar, and makes it the largest ground handler in Pakistan.
