ALLIANCE WITH ACI GIVES
OAG CARGO CUSTOMERS
TRUCKING SOLUTIONS BETWEEN
200,000 ZIP CODES
IN THE US AND
CANADA
The over 35,000
regular international airline and freight
forwarding users of OAGCargo.com, the leading
information portal for the cargo industry, now have
access to road transport services to over 200,000
zip codes in the United States and Canada via the
Air Cargo Inc. (ACI) door-to-door services
database.
By clicking on a
new 'trucking' tab on the OAG Cargo website,
customers can access the full range of truck
service points and rates published and maintained
by ACI. Founded in 1941, ACI enables users to
search by origin and destination points to organise
the ground transportation of cargo shipments and
displays route city names, nearest airports to the
zip code with driving distances and service
providers.
Users can
quickly look up motor carriers, line haul companies
or customs brokers serving specific airports and
view rates. OAG Cargo and ACI are offering new
users a 14-day free trial and the opportunity to
purchase the service for a nominal
fee.
Jess Prieto,
Sales Director of OAG Cargo, said: "This strategic
alliance with ACI further enhances the content of
OAG Cargo, which already incorporates a wide range
of information such as airline service
announcements, schedules and more than three
million airfreight rates that are accessed each
week by more than 30,000 users worldwide, including
16,000 customers in The Americas. ACI is a
long-established provider of road transport
information with a high reputation for the scope
and accuracy of its online
information."
Mario Kovatchev,
President of ACI, added: "The strategic alliance
between Aircargo Communities Inc. and OAG benefits
OAG customers and the entire freight forwarding
community by providing the capability to access the
complete and latest ACI data of truck service
points and rates from the oagcargo.com
website."
