Messe München, organiser of the globally popular transport logistic trade fairs, has acquired Air Cargo Americas Conference & Exhibition from the World Trade Center Miami, marking a significant expansion of its logistics portfolio.
While Messe München is taking over the trade fair, the World Trade Center Miami will remain on board as a strategic partner for three editions and will also support the Munich team in operational matters, says a release from WTC Miami.
“This will ensure the best possible synergies for the benefit of customers. This strategic acquisition strengthens the collaboration between two major forces in the trade show industry, paving the way for a comprehensive logistics platform that covers all modes of transport.”
Since 1991, Air Cargo Americas has been a staple in Miami, firmly rooted in the Americas, and highly valued by the local logistics community, says the release. “As one of the leading air freight exhibitions globally, it has long provided a platform for industry professionals to engage and innovate.”
Reinhard Pfeiffer and Stefan Rummel, CEOs, Messe München say: “We are delighted that Air Cargo Americas is joining our portfolio of trade fairs. For Messe München, this is an important step toward further expanding our activities in North and Latin America and tapping into one of the most attractive markets in the logistics industry. Air Cargo Americas is the ideal complement to transport logistic Americas, which we organised for the first time in Miami in 2022 and was a great success thanks to the overwhelming response.”
The first co-located event will take place at the Miami Beach Convention Center from November 11-13, 2025, the release added. This marks a significant milestone as the World Trade Center Miami had originally planned to move Air Cargo Americas to this iconic venue, and now, with Messe München on board, the enhanced concept will be realised. Both organisers are expecting over 6,000 participants and 350 exhibitors for the 2025 trade fair, the release added.
“The cooperation between the World Trade Center Miami and Messe München marks a milestone for the logistics industry,” says Ivan Barrios, President & CEO, World Trade Center Miami and Robert Schönberger, Global Industry Lead, Messe München. “We are both excited about the opportunities this partnership will bring for the future. The multimodal approach is exactly what the industry needs to address the challenges of today and tomorrow, and this event will be the ideal platform to showcase the latest innovations and solutions.”
Unified platform
The unification of Air Cargo Americas with transport logistic Americas reflects the growing demand for a logistics event that spans all modes of transportation including air, sea, road, and rail. “The combined event will offer exhibitors and attendees a unique opportunity to explore synergies between different transport modes, fostering innovation and efficiency across the supply chain.”
Strategic location
Miami’s location makes it an ideal host for this expanded logistics platform. As a gateway to Latin America and a major hub for international trade, Miami provides unparalleled access to key markets across the Americas, the release added.
“We are thrilled to be part of an event that not only brings together all aspects of logistics but also leverages Miami’s unique position as a hub for global trade,” says Ralph Cutié, Director & CEO, Miami International Airport. “This new partnership between Messe München and the World Trade Center Miami will foster greater collaboration and innovation in the air cargo and logistics industries, benefiting businesses and consumers alike.”
With a network of over 15 associated companies and almost 70 offices worldwide, Messe München is active in more than 130 countries. The more than 150 events held annually attract around 50,000 exhibitors and around three million visitors in Germany and abroad, the release added.
