Santo Domingo.- President Luis Abinader met Thursday morning with Amazon Air Cargo executives to discuss potential investments in technological connectivity in the Dominican Republic. The company also confirmed it will be a sponsor of the Summit of the Americas Business Forum, scheduled in Punta Cana during the first week of December 2025.

During the meeting, Amazon officials detailed the launch of their import and export cargo operations in the country through the Kuiper satellite communications division, making the Dominican Republic the second Latin American nation to have one daily Amazon Air Cargo flight, transporting nearly 800 tons of cargo weekly. The president met with Tom Bradley, director of Amazon Air Cargo, and Catherine Hinckley, head of Kuiper in Canada and Latin America, alongside Minister Víctor Ito Bisono and Customs Director Eduardo Yayo Sanz Lovatón.
