Jade Cargo International was a Chinese cargo airline based in Shenzhen .
history
On October 21, 2004 the partnership agreement was signed, which provided for the establishment of a Chinese cargo airline by Shenzhen Airlines (51%), Lufthansa Cargo (25%) and the German development company (24%). Flight operations began on August 5, 2006. The joint venture is the first cargo airline with foreign participation in China.
At the end of 2011, Jade Cargo suspended flight operations for the time being due to a lack of demand. In spring 2012 Lufthansa announced that it would sell its stake in Jade Cargo International and exit the joint venture in 2012. A partner initially found for the restructuring also withdrew due to the high expected costs. The company was subsequently wound up.
