AFCOM Holdings Limited (AFCOM), a key player in the air cargo transportation sector, has announced the launch of a new international cargo route to Hanoi, Vietnam, effective from 2 July 2025. This strategic move expands AFCOM’s international footprint and reaffirms its commitment to delivering seamless and efficient logistics solutions across Asia.

In conjunction with this expansion, AFCOM has entered into an interline agreement with VietJet, a leading Vietnamese airline. This collaboration is expected to provide integrated cargo connectivity between India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong via Vietnam—enhancing end-to-end logistics capabilities for businesses across the region.

Vietnam’s central location enables faster access to key trade routes such as South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong—areas increasingly vital to global supply chains. We are focused on improving transit times, cross-border access, and delivering integrated solutions that support our customers’ evolving logistics needs.”

This expansion underlines AFCOM’s commitment to building a robust logistics network, strengthening regional ties, and offering reliable, efficient cargo services across Asia.
