Your aircraft
should not fly
empty.
CrateWings partners with cargo aircraft operators across Africa to fill capacity with guaranteed, verified freight.
You fly. We fill. Together, we activate trade corridors that have been sitting dormant for lack of aggregated demand.
The opportunity
Africa has cargo demand.
It just needs lift.
Africa represents less than 2% of global air cargo — not because the goods are not there, but because the aggregation layer has not existed. Exporters cannot fill planes alone. CrateWings solves that. We pool demand from hundreds of shippers so that every flight we activate is commercially viable before it leaves the ground.
The partnership model
Simple. Structured.
Built to scale.
We bring the cargo.
CrateWings aggregates demand from hundreds of African exporters — agri-cooperatives, manufacturers, pharma distributors, and corporate shippers. We build the load before we commit to a route.
You bring the aircraft.
You operate under your own Air Operator Certificate. We do not compete with you — we fill your aircraft. Your crew, your operations, your certificate of airworthiness.
We handle the commercial side.
Booking, documentation, customs clearance, shipper management — all on our platform. You receive a clean manifest before wheels-up. No commercial overhead on your end.
Revenue before takeoff.
Cargo is confirmed and paid before a flight is activated. We commit to a minimum load threshold — so your aircraft does not leave light.
Target corridors
These are the routes
we are building towards.
We activate corridors based on confirmed cargo commitments — not speculation. If you have aircraft suited to any of these routes, we want to talk.
