SAUDIA, Saudia Cargo Enhance Digitalisation with Unilode

To offer new value added services to customers

Saudia and Saudia Cargo awarded the management of their containers and pallets to Unilode Aviation Solutions, the leading global provider of outsourced Unit Load Device (ULD) management and repair solutions, in 2016.

Operations commenced in 2017, which among others have seen the opening of a repair station in Jeddah for the maintenance and repair of Saudia and Saudia Cargo’s ULD fleet.

As part of the next phase of the collaboration between the parties, Unilode will be rolling out its state-of-the-art ULD digitalisation programme, which will enable Saudia and Saudia Cargo to gain a competitive advantage in the market by offering value-added services to their customers.

Mr. Jaan Albrecht, Saudia CEO, said: “Saudia is pleased to see the current successful collaboration with Unilode extended to include an advanced ULD tracking solution that will further drive planning efficiencies and associated cost savings.

“Unilode has already demonstrated its expertise and flexibility to supply the right assets to meet Saudia’s ULD needs, and the digitalisation programme will help gain more control, make certain manual tasks redundant and ultimately ensure that we keep up with the continued growth that our airline is seeing year on year.”
