Meest China, which is part of Meest group of companies, has launched direct air delivery of commercial freight to Ukraine from China. Meest said on its Facebook page that flights will be operated on Beijing-Boryspil and Guangzhou-Boryspil routes twice a week. Cargoes are accepted in volumes of three cubic meters, which is convenient for small and medium-size entrepreneurs.
Meest Group (part of Meest Corporation Inc., Toronto, Canada) provides postal and logistics services in 20 countries in particular, Canada, the United States, Ukraine, Australia, Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, the Czech Republic, Poland, China, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Israel.
In Ukraine, the group is represented by the postal and logistics operator Meest Express, which has been providing targeted delivery services since 2005.
The Nova Poshta Group from October 10, 2019 launched the air delivery service for nine settlements of western Ukraine and 16 settlements in the East of the country, the company has reported.
Surcharge for the service at standard rates is UAH 30 per kilogram.
The new service allows you to provide daily delivery between cities in the west and east of Ukraine. “For example, if you send a parcel before 15:00 in a Mukachevo branch, it will be delivered to the Mariupol branch by 18:00 the next day. It will be the same, if one sends it on the Zaporizhia-Sambir route. Flights on the Lviv-Dnipro-Lviv route are operated from Monday through Friday weekly,” the group said in the report.
The customer receives guaranteed delivery the next day. If the company does not have time to deliver on time, the client will receive compensation for the full cost of delivery.
One can order the air delivery service for parcels up to 30 kg in the branches, while the delivery will be only on weekdays.
Currently, one can order the air delivery service in the offices of nine settlements of western Ukraine (Lviv, Mukachevo, Uzhgorod, Drohobych, Mostyska, Novoyavorovsk, Sambir, Stryi and Chervonohrad) and 16 cities of the east and south of the country (Dnipro, Zaporizhia, Kamianske, Kremenchuk, Kryvy Rih, Kropyvnytsky, Mariupol, Mykolaiv, Novomoskovsk, Pavlohrad, Poltava, Severodonetsk, Sloviansk, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Kherson).
Nova Poshta plans to expand the geography of air delivery.
