« Logistics is about managing constant disruption.
A company’s strength in this sector lies in the trusting relationships it builds with its clients.»
These words perfectly capture the philosophy of Aftab Hossen, Head of Air Freight Exports at Nexline Group – SAYL International Logistics Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
For more than fifteen years, Aftab has worked in the demanding world of international freight forwarding, a field where everything can change from one day to the next – and where trust is the only way to move forward with confidence.
A career built on expertise and client relationships
With 15 years of experience in procurement, export operations and customer relations, Aftab Hossen stands as one of the pillars of Nexline’s Bangladesh branch.
Known for his professionalism and strong service mindset, he combines technical expertise with a human-centered approach, two essential qualities in modern logistics.
“It is important to have a local office in Bangladesh. Clients need to be supported here, on the ground.”
For Aftab, local presence is more than a strategic advantage: it is a necessity.
It is what allows us to stay close to operations, understand clients’ needs and provide them with tailored solutions.
A long-term relationship built on trust
Aftab has known Loïc Benattar, CEO of Nexline Group, for more than ten years.
Their collaboration has been built on a solid foundation of respect, transparency and mutual trust.
So it was only natural that in 2025 he chose to join the Nexline journey and actively contribute to its expansion in Asia.
“This new chapter is more than a professional change. It’s a continuation. I’ve joined a team I know, respect, and share the same vision of the business with.”
A united team between Dhaka and Chittagong
Today, Nexline Bangladesh has 12 team members in Dhaka and 2 in Chittagong, two key hubs for Asian air and sea trade.
A young, committed and proactive team that embodies Nexline’s values every day:
- Commitment, in the daily management of operations,
- Teamwork, in pursuit of a shared objective,
- Transparency, in communication with clients and partners.
Thanks to this local presence, Nexline provides air and sea freight solutions tailored to the needs of Bangladeshi exporters, while ensuring smooth coordination with Europe and Asia.

A firmly rooted Nexline spirit
If Aftab had to define Nexline’s culture, he wouldn’t speak only about performance.
He would mention cricket, football, shared dinners and laughter between colleagues.
Because beyond numbers and deadlines, it’s these moments of connection and camaraderie that truly make the difference.
“I love being busy with the team organising shipments, I enjoy the action. At Nexline, we move forward together, with passion and a positive spirit.”
This human approach, centred on cohesion and respect, perfectly reflects the group’s philosophy: a people-focused logistics model driven by passionate, committed teams.
