Hong Kong - SAN Logistics Limited (Hong Kong, Head Office)
Hong Kong - SAN Logistics Limited is a freight forwarding company headquartered in Hong Kong, focused on handling export shipments from Hong Kong to the United States and Latin America. The company operates as a Regulated-Agents entity under the Hong Kong Civil Aviation Department (HKCAD) and maintains a broad network with local logistics providers and airlines to support its business goals.
Over the past two years, SAN Logistics has navigated market fluctuations in airfreight demand and capacity. The company highlights its ability to sustain growth in tonnage and revenue through sustained customer and airline support. In 2021, SAN Logistics coordinated 12 Cargo-only Passenger (COP) charter flights to London Heathrow (LHR) using British Airways to address capacity shortfalls caused by the pandemic. The company also completed two COP charter flights with Cathay Pacific (CX) in the same year. In addition to ad-hoc charter capacity, SAN Logistics reports managing a monthly average of approximately 130 tons of BSA (Block Space Allocation) to the US, Mexico, and Brazil (GRU).
To maintain capacity and space in the airfreight market, SAN Logistics has built strong relationships with major airlines, including British carriers and LAN Cargo, among others. The company has also implemented a flexible strategy that combines direct airline deals with fixed agreements with select local forwarders. This approach helps reduce risk while allowing the company to focus on core product spaces.
A key component of SAN Logistics’ offering is its ability to share block-space allotment (BSA) with Cathay Pacific (CX) with important partners, providing customers with reliable direct service and greater confidence in delivery timelines. In addition to airfreight, the company has expanded its warehousing and transportation services with a recently relocated facility intended to better support airfreight operations. The new site features a 35,000 square meter fleet area, eight container unloading spots, two on-floor weighing systems, and two large X-ray machines, reflecting a commitment to improved handling and security.
SAN Logistics emphasizes ongoing investment in both hardware and software to enhance competitiveness. The company maintains BSA space and strives to elevate partner carrier standards while pursuing a broader customer base and diversified core offerings. The focus remains on delivering reliable export airfreight services from Hong Kong while enhancing security and efficiency to meet evolving ICAO/IATA requirements and airline security standards.
Overall, SAN Logistics presents itself as a Hong Kong-based freight forwarder with a specialized emphasis on airfreight, COP charter operations, and warehousing capabilities. The company positions itself as a strategically networked partner capable of providing space assurance, flexible capacity solutions, and secure handling for export shipments from Hong Kong.
