Disposal of Global Freight Exchange (GF-X) (20/08/2007)

British Airways World Cargo has disposed of its share of GF-X, the online cargo booking portal, as part of the acquisition of GF-X by Canadian logistics software company, Descartes.

"GF-X remains our preferred online booking channel", said Chris Bosworth, general manager commercial development.

"As both an existing Descartes and GF-X customer, we will continue to extend our relationship with them and are confident that the combination will continue to be a key part of our commitment to automating the shipment management process for the airfreight industry."
