Air Cargo & CFS

An Integral Part of the Air Cargo Network

For nearly 20 years, Grane has expanded its services to support air cargo, meeting the growing needs of supply chains across the Midwest. Located less than a mile from O’Hare International Airport (ORD), we are positioned to provide fast, efficient support for both domestic and international airlines. 

Under Grane, we operate differently from standalone warehouses. With our proximity to O’Hare, expertise in handling air cargo, and specialization in reworking import and export shipments, Grane provides resources and capabilities that others don’t.

With a century of experience and a hands-on approach, we’ve built a reputation for getting the job done right. Our CFS and air cargo services may be one of Chicago’s best-kept secrets, but the businesses that rely on us know exactly what we bring to the table. Reliable service backed by real expertise.
