Challenge Group expands Indian operations, launches additional flights
Challenge Group has announced the expansion of its operations in India with the introduction of two weekly flights to Delhi, starting October 3, 2024. This brings the Group’s total to five weekly flights into India, including three into Mumbai. The new service will operate on Wednesdays and Sundays using Challenge Group’s growing fleet of Boeing 767F aircraft, with a capacity of approximately 52 tons each.
Challenge Group is an international air cargo conglomerate offering tailored and integrated end-to-end logistics solutions from airfreight, handling, and ground logistics to maintenance and aviation services, for a wide range of industries and commodities.
“Delhi is a vital hub for global trade, and our new routes reflect our commitment to supporting India’s growth as a key player in the world economy,” said Or Zak, Chief Commercial Officer at Challenge Group. “These flights will boost connectivity for essential industries and provide much-needed capacity for temperature controlled, time-sensitive, hi-tech shipments, along with other complex verticals.”
Delhi’s strategic importance in connecting northern India’s industries, such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, and textiles, with global markets underscores the Group’s focus on strengthening international trade routes. The new service increases cargo flexibility for global businesses, enabling better supply chain management between India and key regions in Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
With this expansion, Challenge Group continues to deliver on its growth strategy, providing efficient, reliable logistics solutions for India’s fast-growing market.
The company has tripled its capacity over the past four years, now handling over 500,000 tons of cargo annually.
