SF Express

SF Express is a major integrated logistics service provider and the operator of China's largest dedicated cargo airline fleet. Occupying a critical position in the global supply chain, the company bridges the gap between traditional air freight and rapid express delivery. It maintains a substantial aviation network through its subsidiary, SF Airlines , facilitating domestic and international trade through heavy-lift transport and high-frequency logistics corridors. The organisation operates a fleet comprising Boeing 737, 747, 757, and 767 freighters, serving major hubs including the Ezhou Huahu Airport . Beyond conventional aviation, the firm is a pioneer in the deployment of large-scale uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) for regional freight, collaborating with various domestic aerospace institutes to integrate autonomous systems into its logistics network. Its operations support high-tech manufacturing, perishables, and e-commerce sectors. Prospective partners or buyers should verify the specific airworthiness certifications and operational permits for their large-tonnage drone programmes, as these are often subject to evolving domestic regulations. It is also necessary to confirm the current fleet expansion schedule and the specific international traffic rights held by their aviation division for long-haul intercontinental routes.
