Kenya Airways has formally appointed Absolom Ngari as its new Head of Cargo Commercial and Global Sales, a strategic move effective January 5, 2026.
This change is central to the airline’s “cargo-first strategy” as it works to double cargo revenue share and expand its freight operations. He has replaced Peter Musola, who has transitioned from his cargo role to become Country Manager of Ghana for Kenya Airways.
KQ’s Cargo Director, Fitsum Abadi Gebrehawari, confirmed the development and called the appointment a ‘replacement with a wider scope.’ Ngari has 19 years of experience in air cargo management, strategy, and commercial leadership, with most recently serving as General Manager, Africa region for Sharaf Group. He has held senior positions at AB Africa Aviation Consultancy, Aero Africa, Global Focus Logistics, Turkish Airlines Cargo, TAL Aviation Cargo, Africa Direct, Africa Potential Consulting, and Swissport Cargo Services.
