Through this partnership, both organizations will work together and agree on standard operating procedures (SOP) for high-value and high-risk air cargo, to share best practices and information on crime trends.

“It is increasingly important to constantly focus on the customer’s security requirements. With this view, we have taken a decision to enter into this Security Partnership program with Hyderabad Menzies Air Cargo Pvt. Ltd. To ensure that security in today’s supply chain becomes more efficient and effective, it is important for all parties involved to promote collaboration, open communication and best practices. This forward-looking partnership is a valuable benefit for all our customers and a true example of trust and respect,” says Christoph Remund, CEO, DHL Lemuir Logistics Pvt. Ltd.
