Qatar Airways Cargo, together with its ground handling partner Qatar Aviation Services Cargo (QAS Cargo), has secured IATA CEIV Fresh recertification for its Fresh product, reaffirming its adherence to global standards in the handling and transportation of perishable cargo.
Aligned with IATA’s Perishable Cargo Regulations (PCR), the CEIV Fresh certification covers both operational procedures and quality management systems.
The recertification underlines the carrier’s continued focus on delivering consistent, end-to-end cold chain solutions across its global network.
Qatar Airways Cargo’s Fresh product supports a wide range of perishable commodities, including fruits, vegetables, seafood, meat, flowers and confectionery, ensuring shipments maintain their integrity and quality throughout transit.
The recertification reflects an ongoing programme of continuous improvement across both airline and ground operations.
This includes regular audits, process enhancements, targeted training initiatives, and close coordination between Qatar Airways Cargo and QAS Cargo to ensure full compliance with international standards.
As part of its broader industry engagement, Qatar Airways Cargo contributes to the development of global perishables standards through its participation in the IATA Perishable Cargo Working Group (PCWG), supporting the ongoing evolution of best practices across the sector.
