LATAM Cargo increases cherry exports from Chile by over 30%

LATAM Cargo exports 32% more Chilean cherries in 2023– over 7,500 tonnes – compared to the previous year.

LATAM Cargo adds 19 weekly frequencies from Santiago, dedicated to cherries.

About 90% of cherries are primarily sent to Asia for Chinese New Year celebrations with a smaller portion going to other markets like the U.S. & Brazil.

To boost cherry exports and gear up for flower season, LATAM Cargo temporarily adds an aircraft, taking the total to 20 and upping capacity for the year.

LATAM Cargo began the 2023-24 cherry season, sending the first shipment from Santiago to China via New Zealand using LATAM's planes and interline agreements.
