Kuehne+Nagel to utilize Kaiser Aircraft for Logistics Operations

On February 21, 2023, Kuehne+Nagel and the Birmingham Airport Authority announced details of a new partnership that will expand business opportunities for both the company and the region. This is the first time the BAA is partnering with a logistics company and the first time Kuehne+Nagel is establishing a presence at a secondary airport in North America. This partnership allows both organizations to better meet the cargo needs of businesses in the region and helps position Birmingham as an important part of the cargo market in the Southeastern corridor of the U.S.

Last year, the Birmingham Airport Authority completed design work on a new $25 million Air Cargo facility. In May, BHM will break ground on the new facility.Kuehne+Nagel will operate out of Kaiser Aircraft until construction of the new Air Cargo facility is complete.

The first Kuehne+Nagel cargo flight from Stuttgart, Germany is scheduled to arrive at Kaiser on April 2nd.
