AirBridgeCargo Airlines (ABC) has hit the milestone of the 500th RAP container being shipped ex its online station in Italy, Milano.

Yulia Celetaria, Global Healthcare Director of Volga-Dnepr Group, highlights: “MXP is one of the stations that has always gone the extra mile to deliver the results. Thanks to the support and forward-thinking approach of MXP airport, our long-standing ground handler, ALHA, we are able to pin Milano on our map of pharma corridors. Active containers are not easy to handle given their recharging process, ramp operations and loading procedures, but together we make it happen and support our customers offering more cargo-friendly solutions to keep uninterrupted supply chains flow”.

Andrea Battaglia, Special Products Development Manager - Alha Group, comments: “We are delighted to celebrate this milestone with AirBridgeCargo today. As a service provider for AirBridgeCargo in MXP for the past 12 years, since the start of ABC operations in Milan, Alha has always been committed to building a strong collaboration and making an extra effort to ensure quality, consistency, and a high level of service. Over the past two years our collaboration with ABC has strengthened even more: together we have completed extraordinary large-scale pharma operations and, day after day, we manage increasing volumes of healthcare products - so much so that we can now consider Milan MXP as one of the main gateways for the global pharmaceutical supply chain.
