Modern facts
Modern Logístics, which has an air fleet of four Boeing 737-400 jets, recently announced a new direct air route every Saturday between Viracopos Airport in Campinas, SP, and Manaus connecting the two cities. As Manaus hosts Brazil’s largest free trade zone, Modern Logistics is well positioned to connect the region’s 600 industries with the rest of the country and abroad. Modern Logistics’ launch of the Manaus-São Paulo service, together with its investment in distribution centers in both cities, is a critical part of the company’s objective of integrating the country with regular flights between a number of destinations. This significantly enables widespread access to high-value-added logistics services that were previously unavailable.
The goal is to bring companies closer to customers in a fast, safe, quality, availability for cargo, and with the lowest possible cost. The choice for the region is due to the fact that the Manaus Free Trade Zone is the largest industrial hub in the country, where one of the most modern technological devices is located and houses an enormous production line in several industrial areas. Currently, the region has around 600 industries that sell throughout Brazil and to several other countries. Modern Logístics' objective is to integrate the country with regular cargo flights to different destinations, democratizing access to the high added-value air mode, a complex, disruptive, and innovative operation, which the company has mastered for years, with the regularization of technical standards and certifications. Currently, the company has a fleet of four Boeing 737-400F jets, dedicated to cargo, with a capacity of 20 tons each, and eight distribution centers located in Jundiaí, Campinas (two centers), Rio de Janeiro, Brasília, Manaus, Goiania, and Recife and a network of 14 thousand partners to carry out the first and last miles overland
