CEVA Logistics, a global leader in third-party logistics, is now connecting national consumers with Pepsi products thanks to a new contract agreement with PepsiCo Türkiye.
CEVA Logistics is now managing the full lifecycle of PepsiCo's cooler equipment located across various points of sale, with a target to refurbish and maintain 20,000 coolers per year across Türkiye.
The scope of the project spans a wide range of operations, from periodic maintenance and malfunction management of field coolers to on-site technical services and the refurbishment of equipment that has reached the end of its operational life.
With this new operational model, CEVA brings its robust logistics infrastructure and specialized expertise in technical services and field operations to PepsiCo's service. As part of the nationwide operation, dedicated technical teams provide rapid intervention and on-site servicing to ensure the uninterrupted and high-performance operation of the cooler equipment in the field.
Thanks to CEVA’s deep-rooted experience in field management, technical service coordination, reverse logistics, and asset lifecycle management, every stage of the operation is integrated under a single roof. This model safeguards operational continuity while directly contributing to the enhancement of the customer experience.
One of the most critical and strategic components of the project is reintegrating out-of-service equipment back into operation. Cooler equipment that cannot be repaired on-site is transported to CEVA’s refurbishment centers for a comprehensive overhaul.
Following the renewal of their technical and mechanical components, the coolers are restored to near-original performance levels and redeployed to the field. Thanks to this circular economy approach, the lifespan of the equipment is extended up to 10 years, which also helps reduce the carbon footprint associated with new equipment manufacturing and increases resource efficiency.
DP World is marking 20 years of operations at the Port of Callao, reflecting two decades of investment that have expanded capacity, strengthened Peru's trade connectivity and positioned Callao among the leading port terminals in South America.
Since beginning operations in 2006, DP World has invested approximately US$ 1 billion in expanding port infrastructure, modernizing equipment, and introducing advanced technology that has significantly increased the terminal's capacity and productivity. Over the past two decades, DP World has handled more than 22 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs). In 2025 alone, the terminal surpassed 2 million TEUs for the first time – a volume that, just a decade ago represented the total annual throughput of all ports in Peru combined.
Today, DP World's Callao terminal handles approximately 60% of Peru's containerized cargo, serving as the country's primary gateway for international trade and connecting Peruvian businesses through global shipping networks.
Carlos Merino, CEO of DP World in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, said: "For 20 years, DP World has worked alongside our customers, employees, government partners and the wider logistics community to strengthen Peru's connection to global trade. Together, we've transformed Callao into a world-class gateway that supports businesses, creates jobs and helps position Peru for long-term economic growth."
DP World continuously invests to ensure that the terminal keeps pace with the country’s growing trade volumes. In 2024, the company completed a US$400 million expansion with the inauguration of the Bicentennial Pier, increasing annual capacity to 2.7 million TEUs while enabling the terminal to accommodate larger vessels and provide customers with greater efficiency and reliability.
In 2025, Callao became the first terminal on South America's west coast to handle more than two million containers in a single year, marking another milestone in its continued growth and reinforcing its position as one of the region's most important trade gateways.
DP World’s operations support an estimated US$23.6 billion in annual economic activity across Peru and support thousands of direct and indirect jobs throughout the country.
The terminal connects Peru's key export industries with international markets. Between January and May of 2026, DP World in Callao handled 48% of Peru's exports and 61% of its imports, reinforcing the terminal's key role in the country's international trade. Major exports moving through the terminal include grapes, avocados and pomegranates, connecting Peruvian producers with key markets across Europe, North America and Asia.
The company continues to invest in lower-emission equipment, terminal electrification and community initiatives that support more efficient and sustainable operations. Recent investments include 36 electric internal transfer vehicles (ITVs), Latin America's first dedicated port charging station for electric vehicles, and the electrification of nearly the terminal's entire yard crane fleet.
In 2024, DP World became the first port terminal operator in Peru to receive the prestigious Peru Brand license. The license acknowledges the terminal's contributions to Peru’s international trade in terms of its role promoting national exports and investments, and its alignment with the country’s global image.
Looking ahead, DP World is advancing plans for a proposed investment of more than US$1.3 billion to expand the South Terminal, which would further increase annual capacity to up to 4.3 million TEUs. The expansion would also enhance operational efficiency and include the construction of a 20.8-hectare off-dock staging area, further strengthening Peru’s competitiveness as regional trade volumes continue to grow.
"As Peru's trade continues to grow, we remain focused on the next 20 years, investing in the infrastructure and integrated supply chain solutions that will expand capacity, strengthen connectivity and support the country's next chapter of growth," added Merino.
AAR and Miami-Dade County officials will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the 100,000+-square-foot expansion of AAR’s aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facility at Miami International Airport.
The expansion increases the facility’s capacity by 33%, and the additional work supported in the new facility creates 200 new full-time jobs with AAR. Headquartered in the Chicago area, AAR CORP. is a leading global aerospace and defense aftermarket solutions company with operations in over 20 countries.

The launch of the first and only direct service between Casablanca and Los Angeles in June 2026 marked a further step in Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s strategic tri-continental network development.
Building on its Casablanca–Beijing service launched in early 2025, and its wider transatlantic network, this new route has created seamless cargo flows between Los Angeles, Casablanca and Beijing, effectively establishing a round-the-world trade corridor linking major production and consumer markets.
Los Angeles provides access to one of the world’s largest consumer markets and benefits from strong trade links across the Pacific. Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s service therefore supports a diverse cargo mix: Artisan products, textiles and perishables travel into the United States from Morocco and wider African markets, while electronics, e-commerce shipments and industrial products are flown in from China and greater Asia.
This new route strengthens Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s position in North America, one of its most important cargo markets, and opens up further opportunities in high-value and e-commerce-driven supply chains, while also enhancing connectivity for underserved Africa–West Coast and Africa–Asia trade lanes.
“The launch of this Los Angeles service marks a significant milestone in our strategy to connect key international markets via our hub in Casablanca and further facilitate global trade connections,” said Rita Chraibi, Vice-President Cargo, Royal Air Maroc. “By linking the U.S. West Coast with Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s African and Asian network, our customers benefit from seamless, multi-leg connectivity, improved market access and enhanced routing options.”
Breakbulk Americas is pleased to announce that BBC Chartering and SAL INTERMARINE, member of JSI Alliance have confirmed their participation at Breakbulk Americas 2026, joining a growing roster of leading ocean carriers exhibiting at this year's event.
Their attendance builds on confirmations from Chipolbrok, Höegh Autoliners, MSC, CMA CGM, Ocean Network Express (ONE), HMM, NYK Group Americas, K Line and OOCL, representing one of the strongest carrier lineups the event has seen in recent years.
The announcement marks a significant milestone for the project cargo and breakbulk industry. As global supply chains continue to evolve and demand for specialist shipping services grows, direct access to ocean carriers remains a key priority for cargo owners, EPCs, freight forwarders, ports, terminals and logistics providers.
For several years, the reduced presence of major carriers at North America's largest project cargo event has been a challenge for many attendees seeking face-to-face meetings with the companies responsible for transporting oversized, heavy-lift and project cargo. The return of BBC Chartering and SAL INTERMARINE, member of JSI Alliance, further reinforces Breakbulk Americas' position as the premier meeting place for the entire project supply chain.
Attendees at Breakbulk Americas 2026 will have the opportunity to meet directly with some of the world's leading multipurpose, heavy-lift and liner operators, discuss upcoming projects, explore capacity and routing options, and build the partnerships needed to move complex cargo around the globe.
"We're delighted to welcome BBC Chartering and SAL INTERMARINE, member of JSI Alliance to Breakbulk Americas 2026. Their participation, alongside an exceptional lineup of global carriers, demonstrates the importance of the event as the place where the industry comes together to do business. Bringing carriers, cargo owners, EPCs, freight forwarders, ports and logistics providers under one roof creates invaluable opportunities for collaboration and project development." Patrick Hyslop, Event Director, Breakbulk Americas
Taking place September 22-3 2026 in Houston, Breakbulk Americas brings together thousands of professionals from across the global project cargo and breakbulk supply chain to network, generate business opportunities and discuss the latest developments shaping the industry.
With one of the strongest carrier representations in years, the 2026 edition promises even greater opportunities for attendees to connect with the companies that are driving global project logistics.
In its first decade of partnership, Globe Air Cargo Türkiye has supported EGYPTAIR’s transition from a purely belly cargo connection to becoming one of the top ten carriers serving Türkiye.
Alongside its scheduled passenger flights, Egypt’s national airline now also operates two Airbus 330 freighters per week.
Today, EGYPTAIR offers 105 tonnes of freight capacity each week on its scheduled flights out of Istanbul to Cairo. On board is a broad mix of commodities from pharmaceuticals to aerospace, grains, pulses, seeds, and a variety of general cargo.
“We are EGYPTAIR’s contracted GSSA in Türkiye since 2016, and operate a dedicated team of staff to ensure fast and smooth communication at all times,” Ersun Guven, Managing Director of Globe Air Cargo Türkiye, explains. “There is a strong strategic connection between our two national markets, particularly as many Turkish manufacturers are located in Egypt, so load factors are high in both directions – and demand continues to grow unabatedly.”
EGYPTAIR and Globe Air Cargo share common values in flexibility and customer-centricity, and therefore also focus on project and part charter production as a means of developing business. What began with scheduled passenger flights between Cairo and Istanbul, has now grown to include two weekly freighters, with the option to increase these to four weekly freighter services to match market expansion. Globe Air Cargo Türkiye takes care of tender management, operational support, import sales, charters, and complete commercial operations for EGYPTAIR within Türkiye.
It is a similar success story in France, where Globe Air Cargo France has been representing EGYPTAIR since 2010. The French GSSA team markets the cargo capacity of EGYPTAIR’s daily Boeing 787 Dreamliner out of Paris-Charles de Gaulle to Cairo and the two to three weekly Cairo-destined Airbus 300 freighters out of Ostende. Globe Air Cargo France’s focus is on positioning Cairo as a regional hub for trans-shipments to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as well as to Dubai, and South Africa’s Johannesburg. 2026 is set to be the third successive year of record-breaking cargo tonnage out of France, growing from 2500+ tonnes in 2024, to 2,670 tonnes in 2025, and a similar growth prognosis for this year.
Franck Tordjman, Managing Director of Globe Air Cargo France states: “At Globe Air Cargo, we believe three things are essential for sustainable growth: the first is establishing long-term customer relationships by demonstrating reliability and mutual understanding. The second is intelligent product positioning such as pharmaceuticals, perishables, or live animals, for example. And the third is encouraging online bookings – something we have intensively pushed, particularly for shipments below 300 kg, these past few years. The more that is booked online, the faster and more efficiently we can optimise flights using our in-house digital tools.”
“EGYPTAIR’s success in Türkiye and France is testament to what a professional GSSA can deliver. The combination of local market expertise, innovative digital solutions, and a dedicated partnership that has developed and matured over time, will unfailingly result in positive growth,” says Jean Ceccaldi, Chief Executive Officer of ECS Group. “Globe Air Cargo, as with all ECS Group subsidiaries, aims for the perfect symbiosis of commercial efficiency and customer-centricity.”
Davies Turner, one of the UK's largest independent freight and logistics providers, is offering a new seasonal Full Container Load (FCL) shipping service between China and the UK via the Northern Sea Route, utilising the sailings provided by the Sea Legend shipping company.
Operating between August and October 2026, Davies Turner’s new Polar Silk Road service will provide importers with an alternative to conventional ocean, rail and air freight.
Operating to an almost weekly frequency, the service will offer a transit time of just 21 days from Ningbo to Felixstowe, significantly reducing lead times compared with traditional ocean freight while remaining more cost-effective than rail and air services.
The seasonal programme has been developed to help businesses improve supply chain agility during the peak shipping season by providing a faster ocean solution without the premium cost associated with air freight.
The service will see Davies Turner consolidates cargo from six major Chinese ports, including Dalian, Fuzhou, Nansha, Qingdao, Shanghai and Taicang at Ningbo before sailing directly to Felixstowe. From there, containers can be distributed efficiently to destinations throughout the UK and Europe via Davies Turner's extensive logistics network.
Unlike conventional Far East-Europe services that transit the Suez Canal or route around the Cape of Good Hope, the Polar Silk Road travels via the Northern Sea Route, dramatically shortening the sailing distance and reducing overall transit times during the Arctic navigation season.
"Global supply chains continue to demand greater flexibility and resilience," said Tony Cole, head of ocean for Davies Turner.
"By offering this seasonal Northern Sea Route service, we are expanding the multimodal options available to our customers. The Polar Silk Road provides an excellent solution for time-sensitive shipments that need to arrive faster than conventional ocean freight but without the higher costs associated with air transport."
The launch forms part of Davies Turner's ongoing investment in its China origin network and reinforces the company's commitment to providing innovative, multimodal freight solutions that enable customers to optimise both transit times and transport costs.
The Polar Silk Road service will operate on an eight-week sailing programme during the Arctic shipping season from August through October 2026.

Emirates SkyCargo has completed the transport of Altair-1, the UAE’s first commercial AI-enabled earth observation satellite.
Part of Orbitworks’ Altair constellation, the movement of the satellite highlights a landmark achievement in the UAE’s vision to become a global leader in space and advanced technologies. Altair-1 was flown on an Emirates SkyCargo Boeing 777 freighter aircraft from Dubai (DWC) airport to Los Angeles (LAX) ahead of its scheduled launch in October 2026.
Altair is a multi-sensor satellite constellation developed and manufactured in the UAE by Orbitworks. The system is equipped with optical, infrared, thermal and RF sensing capabilities and onboard AI processing. With advanced imaging payloads, optimised orbital design, frequent revisit rates and consistent data acquisition, Altair will provide analysis-ready intelligence for applications including environmental monitoring, disaster response, land and coastal-use analysis, maritime domain awareness, and resource and infrastructure assessment. The satellite transported by Emirates SkyCargo is the first of 10 that will form the Altair constellation.
The transportation of Altair highlights Emirates SkyCargo’s expertise in flying highly sensitive and specialised cargo under its Aerospace and Engineering vertical. A dedicated Emirates SkyCargo team managed the end to end transport of the satellite, maintaining rigorous environmental and safety controls and delivering on schedule.
Badr Abbas, Divisional Senior Vice President, Emirates SkyCargo said: “Emirates SkyCargo is proud to support Orbitworks at this significant moment and contribute to the UAE’s growing reputation as a global hub for innovation, advanced technologies and specialised logistics. Transporting highly sensitive and technologically advanced cargo requires precision and expertise and we are well positioned through decades of deep expertise to support this critical mission. The movement of Altair-1 from the UAE to the United States ahead of its launch also underlines the role of specialised air cargo solutions in supporting the global aerospace sector.”
Schahan Sediqi, General Manager, Orbitworks said: “Altair-1 is the product of hard work by an incredible team, and today marks a historic moment, not just for Orbitworks, but for the UAE’s ambitions in space. We could not have reached this point without in-country partners like Emirates SkyCargo, whose care and expertise got Altair safely from Dubai to Los Angeles. We are incredibly proud of what our team has built, and we now look forward to October, when Altair-1 will launch into orbit and begin its mission.”
Emirates SkyCargo has embarked on an ambitious programme of fleet and network expansion. Since March 2026, the cargo carrier has taken delivery of six Boeing 777-F production freighters and one Boeing 777-300ERSF converted from an Emirates passenger aircraft. The carrier is slated to receive a further four Boeing 777-F production freighters and one additional converted freighter later this year. Emirates SkyCargo’s expanded freighter fleet has allowed the cargo carrier to boost its global freighter network to over 60 destinations, providing customers with access to vital maindeck cargo capacity as well as flexibility and agility to navigate global supply chains.
A.P. Moller - Maersk (Maersk) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell Maersk Training and its subsidiary Maersk H2S Safety Services to Open Gate Capital, an industrial, corporate carve-out specialist.
The agreement remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
The transaction reflects Maersk's ongoing focus on the development of its strategic brands and recognises the strong positions that Maersk Training and Maersk H2S Services have established in the market. Under the ownership of Open Gate Capital, the business will be well positioned to continue its growth with a dedicated strategic focus on training, gas detection, safety and workforce competency solutions.
"Maersk Training has built a strong business with highly skilled colleagues, trusted customer relationships and a solid foundation for future growth. We believe this transaction will enable Maersk Training to continue developing under an owner with training, safety and competency solutions as a key focus area, creating new opportunities for customers, employees and the business alike." Katharina Poehlmann, Head of Strategy at A.P. Moller - Maersk and Chairwoman of Maersk Training.
For more than four decades, Maersk Training has provided specialised training, competence development and safety services to industries including energy, maritime, renewables and logistics, supporting customers in managing operational risk and workforce safety.
"This is an important milestone for Maersk Training. The agreement recognises the strong business we have built together over the past 40+ years. While many of us are proud of our Maersk heritage, we are equally excited about the opportunities this next chapter brings under an owner that has experience in unlocking long-term value and will enable our strategic focus. Until the transaction closes, our focus remains unchanged: serving our customers, supporting one another and delivering on our commitments and ambitions." David Skov, CEO of Maersk Training.
Until the transaction closes, expected later in 2026, Maersk Training continues to operate as part of A.P. Moller - Maersk. Employees, customers, and partners should expect business to continue as usual throughout the transition period.
