Thai Cargo Expo 2027 is scheduled for early March 2027 at BITEC in Bangkok, with Smart Delivery Expo and Smart Retail Expo alongside. TCEB lists 3 to 5 March and the venue lists 4 to 5 March, so Explera DMC Thailand plans delegations around the full window until the organiser settles it.
Explera handles ground arrangements as a Thailand DMC for travel agents. Its Thai company, Explera DMC Co., Ltd., holds TAT licence 14/05119, the Tourism Business Licence issued by the Department of Tourism, and the group is IATA TIDS-registered (96215733) and a member of ASTA (900408341).

What is Thai Cargo Expo 2027?
It is an exhibition and conference for the air side of logistics: airlines and airports, cargo handlers, express and courier companies, and the software and automation behind them. The organiser, Connect Exposition Asia, runs it in BITEC's EH 100 with two sister shows: Smart Delivery Expo for fulfilment and last-mile operations, and Smart Retail Expo for retailers. The 2026 editions ran together at BITEC from 28 to 30 January 2026, so the move to March is worth pointing out when clients compare calendars.
Who should go, and how does it fit the 2027 calendar?
Freight forwarders, airline cargo teams, e-commerce operators and warehouse buyers are the natural visitors. For a logistics company it also pairs well with a second trip later in the year: TILOG-LOGISTIX 2027 returns to BITEC in August and covers warehousing and the wider supply chain, as our TILOG-LOGISTIX 2027 briefing sets out. Smaller firms usually pick one show; larger ones often send different people to each.
How should agents plan a Thai Cargo Expo 2027 delegation?
Hold rooms for three nights across 3 to 5 March, then release the first night if the organiser confirms the shorter dates. Bang Na and the Sukhumvit side of the BTS line give the easiest daily access to BITEC. For many groups the site visits are the real value: cargo terminals and free-zone warehouses around Suvarnabhumi, and distribution centres along the Bangna-Trat road. These need the operators' permission well in advance, so start the requests early. Our Bangkok guide covers hotel areas and travel times.
How can a Thailand DMC help?
Ask your Thailand DMC to take the hotel block and the transfers first, and let the site visits follow once the dates are firm. We arrange coaches, guides and meeting rooms through our MICE team and our transport desk, and every other service is on our Thailand DMC services page.
Next steps
Send the size of the delegation, the companies or terminals they hope to visit and the dates you are working with through our contact page. Our trade desk replies within 24 hours and will check the final show dates with you before anything is confirmed.
