Sheikh Ahmed honoured

, April 19, 2015

The Region Africa and Middle East (RAME-2015) conference of the Switzerland-headquartered International Federation of Freight Forwarders Associations (FIATA) opened today (April 19) at the InterContinental Dubai Festival City.

The event was inaugurated by Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, president of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, chairman of Dubai Airports and chairman and chief executive of Emirates Airline and Group.

Dubai will have the world’s biggest cargo facility when the Dubai World Central (DWC), the world’s first fully-integrated aerotropolis, gets fully completed, offering 12 million tonnes of cargo capacity, said Sheikh Ahmed.

Dubai, he said, already has one of the best infrastructures in the world, including excellent and extensive facilities for the cargo and logistics industry, and had proved to be an ideal trade corridor between the East and West and benefitting the Mena region and South Asia (Menasa).

Sheikh Ahmed received a plaque as a token of appreciation for his support to Fiata and the logistics industry.
