Pravin Singh, Global Head of Cargo, Riyadh Air
}INDIA IS A PRIORITY GROWTH
CORRIDOR WITHIN OUR GLOBAL
EXPANSION STRATEGY~
With air cargo transitioning from a capacity-led model
to one defined by speed, reliability, and sector-specific
precision, emerging trade corridors and digitally
integrated logistics ecosystems are reshaping how
airlines position themselves within the evolving
landscape. In this conversation, Pravin Singh, Global
Head of Cargo, Riyadh Air, outlines how the latest
entrant is building a digitally native cargo proposition
anchored in operational discipline, customer-centric
visibility, and scalable network strategy, while positioning
India as a critical growth corridor linking South Asia
with global markets through Riyadh’s expanding hub
ambitions. The interaction, shaped by GANDHARV
SHARMA , captures the carrier’s long-term vision of
connecting high-growth markets with both established
as well as emerging trade economies through a digitally
integrated and reliability-driven service proposition.
“The Gulf region is
highly competitive, but it
also remains one of the
world’s most important
crossroads for global
trade. Our focus is on
building a differentiated
cargo proposition
centred on reliability,
digital capability, and
operational excellence,
rather than competing
purely on scale.”
