Avianca Cargo, a member of the Abra Group, and DSV, joined forces to transport 58 tons of humanitarian aid to Venezuela in support of communities affected by the recent earthquakes.
Operated by an A330F freighter, the humanitarian flight departed from Miami and arrived in Caracas carrying medical supplies, food, hydration kits, personal hygiene products, and other essential relief items to help address the most urgent needs of affected communities.
The operation was carried out in close collaboration with humanitarian partners, including Direct Relief, Global Empowerment Mission (GEM), Heart to Heart International and World Central Kitchen, whose support was critical in identifying priority needs, coordinating donations, and ensuring that relief supplies reached the communities who needed it most.
“This humanitarian mission, carried out together with DSV, reflects our shared commitment to making a meaningful difference when communities face extraordinary challenges. Our core priority is ensuring the seamless, efficient delivery of international humanitarian aid, which requires ongoing alignment with local authorities and our relief partners”, said Juan Correa, Chief Commercial Officer.
“The greatest impact comes from what we achieve together with purpose and collaboration. We are proud to work alongside Avianca Cargo, combining our logistics expertise with their network and operational excellence to deliver essential relief supplies to communities in Venezuela. Together, we demonstrated how a shared commitment can transform logistics into meaningful action and create lasting impact for the communities we serve”, said Stephanie Penarete, Vice President, DSV Air Product Americas.
As part of its ongoing commitment to supporting communities in times of need, Avianca will continue to put its logistics network and operational infrastructure at the service of those affected by emergencies. Through its extensive cargo capabilities across the Americas, the company remains committed to delivering critical humanitarian assistance quickly, safely, and wherever it is needed most.
