Cathay Cargo Expands Southeast Asia Capacity as Manufacturing Shifts

Cathay Cargo has expanded its air freight capacity into Southeast Asia to keep up with a manufacturing shift toward the region, a senior executive said, as changing trade routes and tariff policy uncertainty reshape global logistics.

During a recent group interview, James Evans, General Manager Commercial at Cathay Cargo, identified Southeast Asia as a primary engine of the company’s growth, saying that the combined Southeast Asia and Oceania market has become the carrier’s third-largest market by revenue after Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland.
