Hactl and CKS Join Forces to Develop PRD Air Cargo Support Services

[ February 8, 2016   //   ]

HACTL Development Holdings Ltd (HDHL) – the business development arm of the Hactl Group – has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Chu Kong Shipping Enterprises (Group) Co., Ltd. (CKS). The objective of the MoU is to explore the joint development of logistics links and infrastructure in and around Hong Kong International Airport and the PRD region, supporting the air cargo sector. The cooperation aims to leverage CKS’ comprehensive logistics network, and Hactl’s expertise in operating a world class air cargo terminal.
CKS is one of the largest inland terminal and logistics operators in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region. Additionally, it manages and operates several bulk cargo berths in the Hong Kong Public Cargo Working Areas, and owns a private wharf in Tuen Mun together with more than twenty cargo terminals in the PRD region, through its subsidiaries.

CKS and Hactl (through its value added logistics subsidiary, Hacis) have a long history of cooperation; they were formerly partners in Hong Kong’s Marine Cargo Terminal.
Following the signing of the MoU, CKS and Hactl will form a working group whose first task will be to conduct a feasibility study focusing on opportunities within Hactl’s existing air cargo business in HKIA, and CKS’ logistics business in Hong Kong and the PRD region.
