Having attended said exhibition, which is attended by more than 120 flower producers and international flower buyers on yearly basis, Turkish Cargo held meetings with various producers and buyers, and hosted Mr. Ahmet Cemil Miroglu, the Ambassador of Turkey in Kenya. Some conversations were held with the Esteemed Ambassador in respect of performance of effectual logistic activities for the floriculture industry.
Turkish Cargo operates direct air cargo shipments for 7 days a week to Nairobi, to which flights (pax) are operated also by Turkish Airlines on 7 days basis.
The flowers, arriving at the cargo terminal by air-conditioned vehicles, are shipped at 2°C + 8°C. If and when vegetables and fruits are also transported within the same shipment, then the flowers are loaded in different compartments in order to avoid the flowers becoming affected by the ethylene gas, generated by such fruits and vegetables, during the flight, and thereby, any and all actions and measures are taken as required.
