Turkish Cargo launches freighter flights to Johannesburg and Madagascar

South Africa sees the majority of its exports going to European and the Americas. These generally consist of machinery, electronic equipment, chemicals and automotive parts.
Madagascar exports a wide range of goods, mainly vanilla, tropical fruits and textile products, to European and the Americas, while live crabs and sea products are transported to the Asia Pacific.
