DSV-Schenker integration at full speed - but who will be left standing?

When DSV completed its acquisition of DB Schenker in April 2025, nobody expected a leisurely integration. The Danish forwarder has built much of its reputation - and considerable shareholder value in the past - on buying large logistics businesses, integrating them rapidly and extracting synergies with remarkable discipline. Yet the Schenker transaction is in another league. Resembling a merger of equals, it brought together two organisations of enormous scale, overlapping networks, different systems and very different corporate histories.

FedEx to develop air cargo hub at Delhi's Indira Gandhi Airport

FedEx has announced plans to develop a fully automated air cargo hub at GMR Cargo City at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport. Spread across approximately 230,000 sq ft, the integrated air cargo hub is designed to bring international gateway and pickup-and-delivery operations together within a single facility, enabling greater operational efficiency and faster, more seamless movement of shipments. Once operational, the hub is designed to increase processing capacity from 600 to 5,000 packages per hour, with the flexibility to scale further as demand grows, The facility represents a long-term investment of approximately US$150m, said FedEx. The facility is planned to feature an advanced auto-sorter, latest-generation X-ray machines and enhanced security systems, alongside intelligent package-handling technologies. These capabilities will support efficient and reliable shipment movement, strengthen network resilience and enhance the customer experience, explained FedEx.

Hong Kong Air Cargo adds Brisbane to charter network

Hong Kong Air Cargo plans to start round-trip charter flights between Hong Kong and Brisbane, Australia this month. The cargo carrier will begin flights on 29 August and operate the once a week service on Saturdays. "By expanding footprint at Queensland's premier aviation gateway, the route strengthens our regional network and opens lucrative trade lanes between East Asia and Oceania," said Hong Kong Air Cargo. "Looking ahead, Hong Kong Air Cargo will continue to explore expansion opportunities, including growth in key markets and long-haul development." Earlier this month Hong Kong Air Cargo launched a dedicated freighter service between Hong Kong and Mumbai. As well as Australia and India, the carrier has steadily expanded into Europe, in part to meet e-commerce demand in the region, although e-commerce volumes have recently been affected by the European Union's (EU) introduction of a charge for low-cost packages. The airline started operations in the region in October 2023 with a service to Milan Malpensa. In February 2024, Hong Kong Air Cargo began operating a new route to Liege in Belgium, then in September 2024, it expanded its network to Oslo in Norway. The UK in particular has been a major focal point for the airline's European operations. In February 2024, it started operating to London Stansted (STN), then in October 2024, it launched a route to Birmingham (BHX). In February 2025, the airline began flying to Glasgow Prestwick (PIK) and in November 2025 it began operations at East Midlands Airport (EMA). In February this year, the airline also launched scheduled services to Larnaca International in Cyprus.
