Our story

It started with an airline nobody in Pakistan knew.

Our first challenge was DAS Air in 2002 — an unknown airline in Pakistan, serving African points. We took it on, and in a short span DAS became one of the leading off-line airlines for Africa from Pakistan.

Since then, Gul Aviation has represented on-line and off-line airlines covering Europe, North and South America, South East Asia, the Middle East, the Far East and Africa. Our customers are our main strength and we treat them with great respect: we safeguard their interests and strongly discourage favouritism — as part of our commitment to neutral airline representation.

Vision & strategy

Outsourcing is the solution.

To stay flexible in a fast-changing market, airlines need lower overheads and first-rate service while keeping their own identity. That is what we deliver.

Our vision

To be the leading air cargo GSSA in Pakistan, driven by a dynamic workforce, with tailor-made solutions for the airline and its customers.

Our hallmark

To sell the right cargo aggressively — at high yield.

Neutral

100% of sales through established IATA cargo agents and leading freight forwarders. No favourites.

Fast to market

Established relationships with forwarders help new airline appointments reach the market.

Why neutral matters

One desk between every airline and every agent.

We sell through established IATA cargo agents and leading freight forwarders only — never directly against them. We apply each airline’s commercial policies consistently and support agents fairly, with rates and space subject to the shipment and available capacity.

That neutrality is why airlines trust us with their brand and why forwarders trust us with their cargo.

What we stand on

Three foundations. Non-negotiable.

01

Neutral

Our customers are our main strength. We safeguard every agent's interests and strongly discourage favouritism — so the whole market books our airlines.

02

Local

Our own offices and our own people in six cities, close to the exporters who ship — not a single desk trying to cover a whole country.

03

Yield-driven

The hallmark of our strategy: sell the right cargo, aggressively, at high yield — and report the results to the airline every fortnight.
