Kale Logistics Solutions (Kale) has signed a contract to extend its digitization partnership with long-time customer CHI Aviation Handling (CHI) for another five years.

Frankfurt-based air cargo service provider CHI said it has increased the efficiency and productivity of its ground handling operations by using Kale’s cargo management system, GALAXY, to digitize cargo handling.

GALAXY cargo handling software is designed to provide complete process automation, clear visibility, control, collaboration and seamless integration across the stakeholder network.

“We have chosen to continue our partnership with Kale to support our vision of digital transformation; we need a reliable IT system that can be easily implemented in every airport station where we operate and Kale’s GALAXY is the best fit solution,” said Dominik Misskampf, Managing Director of CHI.

“We share with Kale a common desire to create digital channels that make a difference in the service of all our customers, businesses and consumers, by increasing the accessibility of our service and improving our response times.

“Working with a global leader in technology services and digital delivery, whose values ​​mirror our own, is an important step in our digital journey and we look forward to delivering on our ambitious plans.”

“CHI has been a valued partner as one of our long-time customers,” said Amar More, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Kale Logistics Solutions. “Over the years, they have offered daily operations information, based on which we have refined our freight management system, GALAXY.

“This gives us the opportunity to serve them even better in the years to come and has strengthened our collaboration in the German air cargo industry, and we are delighted to be their partner of choice to future-proof their technologies and manage their strategy of digital transformation. ”

Currently, over 85 airports in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India use GALAXY to manage their air cargo operations for import, export and in-transit cargo.

Earlier this month, Kale’s U.S. subsidiary, Kale Info Solutions, announced that it will support increased cargo throughput at Vancouver International Airport in Canada through the implementation of its Community airport cargo system (ACS), to bring efficiency, transparency and sustainability to cargo operations at the airport.
