Changi Airport (SIN). Speedcargo's
artificial intelligence-based Cargo

Cargo Eye and Assemble will enable
us to provide Etihad Cargo and its
customers with digital audit trails of
how their cargo has been handled,
improving efficiency and providing a
quality end-to-end service. We will
continue to create value and enhance
our service offerings through digitalization, "
