Global freight industry consensus is thought to be 'looking pretty good': IATA
IATA chief economist Brian Pearce, speaking at the CAPA-ACTE Global Summit, noted (12-Oct-2017) the global freight and cargo industry consensus is thought to be "looking pretty good". Mr Pearce however said increased trade has spurred the need for companies to restock inventory quickly, turning to airfreight to do so. "That doesn't last very long", he emphasised.
