This international airport has launched a new e-commerce logistics facility


The Ethiopian Airlines Group has launched a new e-commerce logistics facility at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport. The facility is located in the airport's Ethiopian Cargo and Logistics Centre and is dedicated to e-commerce, mail and express logistics services.


The facility will offer a range of services including merging, unmerging, sorting, repackaging and labelling. Technology and systems within the facility mean the airline's customers can now easily track and trace their cargo. 

Ethiopian Airlines Group also pointed out that the facility "aims to bridge the logistics gap and position Addis Ababa, Ethiopia as a cross-border electronic commerce logistics center in Africa and other regions".


Mesfin Tasew, CEO of Ethiopian Airlines Group, said at the unveiling ceremony of the new facility:"We have implemented high-end technology in infrastructure, which has completely changed the way goods are transported and delivered in the e-commerce industry in Africa. Through this facility, Ethiopian Airlines paved the way for the development of e-commerce services in Ethiopia and the African continent."


Last year, Ethiopian Airlines partnered with postal company MailAmericas to develop cross-border e-commerce services in Africa and the Middle East with Addis Ababa as a hub.
