Infrastructure

LAN CARGO has facilities at its main operating points, the primary one being at Miami International Airport. Facilities at this airport, the largest of a foreign-owned company in the United States, provide transport services to all cargo travelling to and from Latin America.

The Miami distribution center is divided into two large areas: General Cargo and Perishable Cargo and operates with latest generation equipment for manipulation, handling, and storage of cargo in optimal conditions. The use of advanced technology allows for providing an agile and safe service to all shipments transiting through LAN CARGO's facilities.

The Perishable Cargo area is subdivided into cold, temperature-controlled, and frozen goods sections, for the adequate preservation of different types of perishable goods shipments, such as fish, flowers, and asparagus.

Additionally, at the Miami distribution center a system has been developed using the latest technology that establishes an agile and extraordinarily safe procedure in handling all shipments passing through our facilities. From the moment the shipment is received by LAN CARGO, the system registers each and every piece that passes through the cargo complex, establishing its characteristics, size, weight, placement on the racks, status, etc.

An important part of this information is in turn shared with the client through our new e-tracking , allowing you to be permanently aware of your shipment's location.

General efficiency levels have increased since the development and implementation of these cargo management systems.

The Miami distribution center also operates with sophisticated X-ray systems, permanent monitoring systems through advanced high-definition closed circuit TV cameras, and reinforced storage spaces for valuable goods, thus avoiding risks.

Today, the company can proudly say that in Miami it offers the most modern and high-tech storage facilities with the safest and most sophisticated cargo management systems. Thus, it can provide service excellence according to the requirements of each type of shipment and each one of its clients.

The Miami distribution center has served as a model for all the company's facilities in Latin America's main airports (Santiago, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Lima, and Guayaquil, among others).
