Located in the southern department of Huila, Pitalito sits at the centre of one of Colombia's most important coffee-growing areas. Its airport (PTX) handles regional passenger flights and has neither a cargo terminal nor customs facilities, so it is honestly not cargo-capable. Export-grade specialty coffee leaves the region by truck, moving via Neiva toward the El Dorado cargo complex in Bogotá, where customs clearance and international freighter capacity are available. For forwarders, Pitalito is the land-side origin of a coffee supply chain whose air-freight leg only begins in the capital.
