Flying High

The acquisition of the business of Imperial Air Cargo (IAC) is the biggest deal BidAir Cargo has struck in 15 years. IAC brings with them three contracted Boeing 737-200F freighters which we are using for our overnight service. This is significant because we now have a comprehensive range of daytime and overnight services to satisfy the total needs of our market. Couriers have been pressing us for the extra convenience of a one-stop-shop. The logical solution was the acquisition of IAC, with whom we already had a FLYING HIGH successful working relationship. After extensive discussions, we made an offer for the business which was accepted. We then had to wait for the Competition Commission to approve the acquisition which has now been done.
