Bursa Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BTSO) Logistics Inc. launched the practice of distributing goods by air cargo one and a half months ago and the service is attracting interest from companies operating in the region.

According to a written statement released by BTSO, the products can be delivered to the target companies in a short period of time thanks to Logistics Inc., which enables the direct access of the products to the Middle East and Asian countries, especially to Europe.

The company, which has a temporary storage area for 60 tons, provides companies with the opportunity to deliver their export products to world markets in an average of one and a half days.

The center sent companies' products in one and a half months to the U.S. and Europe when requested.
