This service handles air freight for people who do not know the process. It picks up goods, packs and labels them to airline rules, books cargo space on flights, handles the paperwork and security checks, and delivers incoming cargo from the airport to shops and homes in Imphal.
Manipur's main airport is at Tulihal in this district, and Imphal West is the state's trading and transport centre. The national highways into the valley are often blocked, and goods then run short in the city for weeks. At such times some traders bring in medicines, spare parts and fresh goods by air. Families also send local foods, handloom and gifts to relatives and students in other cities.
You need a small office and packing room near the airport, weighing scales, strong cartons, a small van, and a tie-up with a registered air cargo agent, or your own registration with the airlines. Learn the rules on what cannot fly, such as some liquids, batteries and gas cylinders. The hard parts are high airline rates, limited cargo space on busy days, and competition from big courier firms.
Win customers through Ima Keithel traders, pharmacy and spare-parts dealers, handloom societies, and Manipuri student groups in other cities.
