Maman air cargo terminal announced last week that it was about to conclude an agreement with an un-named American company for the setting up of a joint company which will operate a cargo terminal at NY's JFK airport.
 
Reports suggest that Maman's investment in the joint project would reach US$ 1.3 millions.
The new JFK venture is seen to be part of Maman's business strategy to develop business outside Israel.
 
In 2003 the company purchased the Czech company "AVEX" which operate a 70 dunam logistic depot near the German border. The depot is used as a distribution centre for goods destined to European markets.
