KATHMANDU: Turkish Cargo has released three new commercial films depicting the opportunities offered to the global economy by its mega hub, SMARTIST, which is interconnecting the world.
Raising the bar continuously for success by combining its global flight network of more than 340 destinations with Türkey’s unique geographical advantage; Turkish Cargo operates from its state-of-the-art facility, SMARTIST, which is one of the most advanced cargo hubs in the world. The global brand showcases its strength and potential with a series of three commercial films.
The first film tells about the transoceanic journey of a Barramundi, grown in South Asia and served on the same day at a restaurant in New York. The second film depicts the arrival of a valuable ceramic vase, owned by a Chinese dynasty and auctioned off in Paris, France. Telling the story of the journey of a Kiwano, grown in Africa, the third film sets in a greengrocer counter in Tokyo. As the characters cannot hide their amazement at hearing that the products from all over the world have come from Istanbul, the end of each film highlights SMARTIST as “The logistics hub of the globe”.

Turkish Airlines Chairman of the Board and the Executive Committee, Prof Dr Ahmet Bolat, stated, “We, as Turkish Airlines, have covered a remarkable distance and made great achievements in the course of our journey throughout our country’s aviation history as its national flag carrier. We have always distinguished ourselves from our competitors with our service quality beyond expectations along with our strong foundation and agile structure. We built SMARTIST, our mega cargo facility that ranks among the largest hubs in the world. With this strategic investment, we have become the bridge of trade between east and west. These achievements stem from not only our unique geographical advantage but also due to the strategy drawn up in line with the vision, namely "the Future is in the Skies", created during the early days of our country’s aviation.”
He added, “As the year 2023 is the 100th anniversary of our country’s foundation, this year carries a special significance for us. As part of its targets of Turkey for its 100th year, Turkish Airlines is committed to delivering much more by taking courage from its accomplishments in the past. We have been turning Istanbul into the logistics centre of the world with the investments we make and the strategies we have created.”
