Nippon Express, a group company of Nippon Express Holdings, has launched a new air transport service named NX-Forwarding – AIR – Ohio Midnight Express between Japan and the U.S.
The airfreight service will operate between Chubu Centrair International Airport and Cincinnati Airport, according to a press release from Nippon Express.
“Cargo is delivered to Chubu Airport in the evening where Nippon Express manages an international cargo handling site. The shipments are then loaded onto a direct flight to Cincinnati late that night. Upon arrival, the cargo is quickly picked up and distributed by Nippon Express USA’s Columbus branch in Ohio.”
Earlier, cargo destined for Ohio was routed through Chicago’s O’Hare Airport but the Japanese company’s latest service will streamline delivery times, the release added.
“Ohio is one of the most industrialised states in the U.S. with various companies in the automotive-related and other industries operating there.
Demand for urgent cargo transport to Ohio is thus on the rise, especially among customers in the Midwest where automotive-related industries are thriving.”
The NX Group will continue developing services to meet urgent transport needs and optimise its customers’ supply chains.
