Air Freight Station
Kerry Indev is one of the first companies to bring theconcept of AFS in India which is atransshipment centre that aims at decongesting the airport and moving airline ULDS directly from the tarmac to the AFS for faster clearance of cargo.
The AFS is strategically located within the ICD, Irungattukottai which is adjacent to the manufacturing zone in Chennai.
We have exclusive contracts with major airlines to move their ULDs to our AFS. Kerry Indev has self-owned roller bed trucks facilitating movements of these ULDs to-from the AFS. We plan to start buyer consolidations for facilitating exports out of AFS as well.
