Air India SATS Signs MoU with Spicexpress and Total Solutions to Expand Freighter Operations at Noida International Airport ~ Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed at the ACFI World Conclave 2026 marks a step toward positioning the AISATS MMCH as a major cargo hub ~ New Delhi, 24 August 2026: Air India SATS Airport Services Private Limited (AISATS) has entered into two separate Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) with Spicexpress Logistics Private Limited (Spicexpress) and Totsol Aviation Private Limited (A Total Solutions Group Company) to explore and develop freighter operations at the AISATS Multi Modal Cargo Hub (MMCH) at Noida International Airport (NIA). The agreements were signed at the ACFI World Conclave 2026 in New Delhi. The agreement with Spicexpress lays the groundwork for livestock freighter operations from AISATS’ cargo terminal at NIA, where the company is planning to operate approximately 200 freighters between September 2026 and August 2027. The initiative leverages the AISATS Cargo Terminal’s strategic proximity to major livestock-producing regions, like Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, thus enabling cargo to reach its final destinations in a shorter time span. The integrated infrastructure of the hub further enables faster and digitally coordinated cargo movement, acting as a gateway to international markets. Under the MOU with Total Solutions, AISATS plans to explore the feasibility of scheduled and non-scheduled cargo freighter operations from Noida International Airport. It's a timely move for the AISATS Multi Modal Cargo Hub, adding freighter capacity and connectivity at NIA just as cargo operations there start to ramp up. Mr. Ramanathan Rajamani, CEO, Air India SATS, said: "The AISATS Multi-Modal Cargo Hub is positioned to support more efficient and predictable movement of livestock consignments to both domestic and international markets. The hub also offers the flexibility needed in handling non-scheduled operations. Livestock freighter capacity is central to the growth of the overall industry, and we will act as a catalyst to further enhance it by reducing the timeframe. Our technology-led infrastructure automates multiple processes which make it a reliable gateway for all sorts of cargo needs.” He Further added, “The specialised infrastructure at our state-of-the- art facility has been designed to ensure optimal cargo conditions and uphold the highest quality standards across the supply chain. With digitally integrated operations and advanced automation at its core, the facility is equipped to provide a dependable and efficient gateway for specialised as well as general cargo. With partners like Spicexpress, Total Solutions and Noida International Airport, we are confident that this hub will strengthen the link between India’s livestock-producing regions and global destinations and play an important role in connecting North India’s cargo markets to global destination.” Mr. Amit Chadha, Head of SpiceXpress & VP - Spicexpress and Logistics Private Limited, added: "This MOU partnership with AISATS is about creating a dependable operating model for a category of cargo where consistency matters as much as connectivity. Livestock movements require careful coordination across the journey, and dedicated freighter capacity gives us greater control over how these shipments are planned and handled. Our objective is to build a sustainable operation from the AISATS MMCH, with the right processes and scale to serve the requirements of customers across the region. The dedicated and specialized facilities at terminal will enable safe and healthy storage & carriage of livestock”. Sandeep Datta, Managing Director, Total Solutions Group, added: " Our focus is on developing cargo propositions that are commercially viable, responsive to market demand and supported by strong engagement with airlines, freight forwarders and the wider cargo community. Through this collaboration with AISATS, we aim to bring our market knowledge, cargo development capabilities and operational experience to help build sustainable freighter connectivity from Noida International Airport. We will work closely with our partners to identify viable trade lanes, aggregate cargo demand and develop both scheduled and non-scheduled freighter opportunities that can progressively strengthen connectivity for customers across North India."
