France, 27th May 2026:

ECS Group’s Globe Air Cargo (GAC) France is working closely with All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Nippon Cargo Airlines (NCA), to promote and strengthen NCA’s position in the French market. As the two airlines join their networks together, GAC France acts as a single point of sale out of France, ensuring optimum load factors and digitally enhanced commercial processes.

“GAC France is at the forefront of this historic cargo integration and will actively contribute towards optimising NCA’s capacity and network usage. Its objectives for the next 6–12 months are clear: strengthen NCA’s market position and share by increasing its visibility; and expanding and consolidating key accounts, focusing both on existing partners and targeting potential customers,” says Jean Ceccaldi, Chief Executive Officer of ECS Group. “What makes the partnership particularly interesting, is the group’s combination of freighters and passenger flights serving France. This integration of services means a broader offer for customers in terms of products, capacity, and destinations – and all from a single team interface.”

“We are proud to support NCA in strengthening its presence in France. By combining GAC France’s local market expertise with NCA’s strong network and product offering, we can create new opportunities for our customers while delivering greater visibility, efficiency and added value across key verticals,” adds Franck Tordjman, Managing Director of Globe Air Cargo France.
GAC France already has an established, centralised ANA Cargo team that proactively coordinates all operations and customer follow-ups. It places a dedicated focus on key accounts and specific verticals (such as aerospace, pharma, automotive, and high-tech). Through the integration of NCA’s customer segments, those verticals will also include oversize cargo, CAO and other high-value or specialised commodities.

NCA’s Boeing 747-8F fleet operates 5 weekly flights from Paris – Charles de Gaulle (CDG) airport, via Amsterdam or Frankfurt to Japan (NRT/HND/OKA/KIX/NGO/FUK). Daily flights are available to Hong Kong (HKG) and Shanghai (PVG). Bangkok (BKK) is served three times per week, and flights to Singapore (SIN) and Taipei (TPE) are operated twice per week.

“The larger the network and greater the product scope, the more important it is to ensure maximum process efficiency,” Jean Ceccaldi. “And that can only be achieved through digitalisation which is standard throughout ECS Group. From real-time capacity access though the CargoAi booking platform, to immediate quote-to-booking functions, to optimum capacity usage thanks to SkyPallet, NCA will benefit from GAC France’s experience in combining innovation with in-depth market knowledge.”
