SAS Cargo Teams Up with Innovator cargo.one to Harness the Rise of Digital Procurement

SAS Cargo, the airfreight arm of Scandinavian Airlines, is teaming up with cargo.one to enhance its digital presence in the global air freight market. This partnership will open up SAS Cargo’s capacity to a wider audience of freight forwarders, making it easier for them to access and book services online. By joining forces with cargo.one, SAS Cargo is stepping into a modern approach that aligns with current trends in logistics.

Utilizing the belly space on its flights,SAS Cargo plays a vital role in Northern Europe’s air cargo landscape. It connects Scandinavia to key international trade routes through its hubs in Copenhagen,Oslo,and Stockholm while employing state-of-the-art Airbus aircraft for efficient and eco-pleasant transport solutions. With service to 135 destinations across 31 countries and an annual haul of over 60,000 tons of goods, SAS Cargo is well-positioned for growth.

The journey towards digitalization has been significant for both SAS Cargo and cargo.one. Actually, SAS launched its first direct booking portal back in 2015—just as cargo.one was emerging as a versatile platform for airline-independent bookings two years later. Fast forward to today: more than 80% of bookings at SAS are now made online! This collaboration will allow them to tap into cargo.one’s extensive network that includes major global forwarders as well as smaller businesses relying on real-time connections.

Starting this April, users from cargo.one’s community—comprising around 25,000 members—will be able to quickly discover and book available capacity from SAS Cargo within seconds. The integration promises an effortless procurement process along with innovative tools designed specifically for managing shipments effectively. As digital workflows gain traction across industries worldwide, this move comes at just the right time.

“Working alongside cargo.one means we can offer our customers greater convenience globally,” said Markus Ek, CEO of SAS Cargo.”Freight forwarders will benefit from an easy booking experience while maximizing their use of our services.”

“SAS Cargo aligns perfectly with our vision at cargo.one,” added Moritz Claussen, Founder & Co-CEO of the platform. “This partnership allows us both to expand our reach among forwarding teams who depend on reliable quoting and booking solutions daily.”

This collaboration kicks off in April when freight forwarders across EMEA regions along with North America and Asia can start quoting and reserving space on general or temperature-sensitive shipments weighing up to 10 tons bound for major cities like frankfurt or New York City—and even Tokyo or Seoul! More markets are set to follow soon after.
