Jade Cargo was established in October 2004 as a joint venture between Shenzhen Airlines (51%), Lufthansa (25%) and German development finance institute DEG (24%), with its base at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX). It officially announced the closure of the company and the start of liquidation proceedings effective June 4, 2012.
Jade Cargo had faced continuous financial difficulties since its foundation. It flew its last scheduled flight on Dec. 25, 2011 and grounded its fleet on Dec. 31, 2011. The cargo carrier signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with UniTop on its restructuring in Feb. 2012. However, UniTop withdrew its LOI for the restructuring plans late in May 2012.
