Abstract
This thesis investigates the challenges and opportunities within the air cargo trade, focusing on insights gathered from employees in Ethiopian international air cargo services. A comprehensive analysis of the current industry landscape revealed several key issues: insufficient focus on cargo infrastructure development, inadequate stakeholder collaboration, inefficiencies in ground handling processes, the need for research and innovation, and challenges in customs clearance procedures. Based on
these findings, recommendations are proposed to enhance export cargo performance. These include prioritizing cargo infrastructure development, improving stakeholder collaboration, enhancing ground handling efficiency through technological integration and training, fostering research and innovation initiatives, streamlining customs clearance processes, and ensuring prompt implementation of improvement measures. Implementing these recommendations is expected to lead to improved efficiency, increased throughput, and enhanced global competitiveness for Ethiopia's air cargo
industry.
