Based in Merstham, Surrey, UK and established for over fifteen years, The A-Z Group is a market leader in the provision of information for both the global air cargo community and the international defence sector.

Starting with the twice-yearly A-Z Worldwide Airfreight Directory, which quickly became the air cargo industry´s principal information reference source, the product portfolio expanded with the launch of the A-Z World Airports Guide and A-Z Air Freighters Guide. Material from these publications is available through the company´s websites www.azfreight.com and www.azworldairports.com and its bespoke Data-on-Disk product.

Air Cargo Week, a global circulation weekly newspaper for airlines, airport operators, general sales agents, freight forwarders and shippers, was launched in 1998. The latest addition to the frequency publications is Air Cargo China Monthly, the only Chinese language newspaper produced specifically for the fast growing Chinese air cargo market. The Air Cargo Diary is a high quality executive desk diary produced each year along with year planners linked to both major newspapers.

The defence sector is catered for by a number of powerful information products. The British Defence Equipment Catalogue is an annual reference work listing the products and services of companies in the British defence industry whilst the British Defence Industry Directory - an official publication of the Defence Export Services Organisation - provides a definitive listing of companies and contacts. The internet site, bdec-online.com has proved to be a market-leading defence information website. It is fully searchable by company, product, service, trade name and individual executive. Currently it receives more than 1 million visits per year.

Homeland Security is the latest product in the portfolio in both hard copy and website format, serving this $45 billion market with information about British companies, their products and services.

Exhibitions and conferences are also organised for the global logistics industry, all supported by daily newspapers and official show catalogues published by The A-Z Group.
