## Description

A German forwarder keeps a jumbo freighter of its own at Greer: Senator International flies a Boeing 747 from Greenville-Spartanburg to Frankfurt-Hahn (HHN) four to five times a week, with 80 to 90 percent of the load belonging to BMW. The airport handled a record of roughly 96,800 tons of cargo in 2021 (up 48 percent on 2020), including more than 43,800 tons of international freight worth about US$5 billion, and volume doubled within two years of Senator's launch. To meet the surge, a US$33 million, 110,000-square-foot cargo facility with a 17-acre apron opened in 2022, able to handle up to three 747-8 freighters at once. FedEx and UPS add scheduled freight service. BMW's Spartanburg plant — the largest in the company's network by output — sits five miles away and ships its X-series SUVs through the Port of Charleston. Inland Port Greer links that seaport by Norfolk Southern rail, knitting rail, road and air together. Foreign-Trade Zone 38 adds bonded and cold-storage space along Interstate 85 between Atlanta and Charlotte, and Michelin's North American headquarters sits in Greenville.
