Lufthansa Cargo honors Expeditors with the “Excellence Award 2024”

During this year’s Global Partner Council (GPC) in Chantilly, France, Lufthansa Cargo honoured the international logistics and transport company Expeditors with the “Excellence Award 2024”. The GPC is an annual meeting organised by Lufthansa Cargo with its largest customers and top management. The award has been presented annually to a partner since 1999.

“Expeditors is and remains a strong global partner of Lufthansa Cargo. The collaboration is defined by professionalism at all levels – from ground handling to executive leadership,” said Ashwin Bhat, CEO of Lufthansa Cargo. “In air freight as a people´s business, Expeditors stands out through open communication, proactive engagement, and a high degree of reliability and trust.” In 2024, the global collaboration was redefined under a comprehensive agreement. In the coming months, the shared focus will be on further developing the healthcare sector, with a particular emphasis on pharmaceuticals. This close global alignment plays an important role in advancing Lufthansa Cargo’s mission: Enabling Global Business.

“The partnership between Expeditors and Lufthansa Cargo has progressed through close collaboration and mutual trust, shaped by a shared commitment to operational excellence and the dedication of our teams on both sides,” said Tim Barber, Executive Vice President Europe from Expeditors, as he accepted the award in Chantilly. “We regard Lufthansa Cargo as a trusted strategic partner and are truly honored to receive their Excellence Award 2024 – a recognition we accept with sincere appreciation and humility.”
