The memorandum of understanding was signed by Mr Geert Aerts, chief cargo & real estate officer of BAC, and Mr Lim Ching Kiat, Executive Vice President of Air Hub & Cargo Development of CAG at the Let’s Talk Cargo industry seminar in Singapore.

Brussels Airport Company (BAC) and Changi Airport Group (CAG) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on 2 March 2023 to augment the strategic partnership between the two airports in the area of air cargo development.

Both airports will drive initiatives to enhance capabilities in pharmaceutical logistics, undertake studies and trials in the fields of digitalisation and sustainability and exchange information and best practices. The two airport groups have collaborated on various projects since 2016, and one of their first joint initiatives was the co-founding of Pharma.Aero with Miami International Airport.

Under the MOU, the two airport companies will jointly explore and undertake trials and initiatives in areas of growing importance like sustainability. One of the projects is a Green Air Pharma Corridor study to establish a green lane with a set of sustainability standards throughout the end-to-end supply chain. The two will also work together to strengthen passenger and cargo connectivity between Singapore and Brussels.
