LATAM Cargo to triple warehouse capacity at Bogotá airport
New facility to add 46,414 sq ft of cargo space and increase cold storage capacity by 20%, alongside infrastructure upgrades at three Colombian airports.
LATAM Cargo Group is set to triple its warehouse operational capacity in Bogotá with a new 46,414 sq ft facility at El Dorado International Airport in Colombia. The expansion is part of the company's infrastructure development plan to improve cargo handling capacity and support the country's foreign trade and domestic shipments.
The new warehouse will be built at the eastern annex of the airport's cargo terminal, with direct connectivity between trucks and aircraft to facilitate cargo movement and ramp operations.
The facility will increase LATAM Cargo's cold storage capacity by approximately 20% to support the growth of flower exports. The carrier currently holds a 35% share of Colombia's flower export market.
The company also plans to expand its domestic cargo facilities in Bogotá and establish a dedicated area to handle the growing volume of import cargo.
