UPS has introduced an atypical air cargo route focused on reverse trade from Paris to Hong Kong .

Primary customers include makers of wine, perishable foods, luxury goods, medical products and aerospace components.

Primary flow of goods by air and ocean tends to be from Asia to Europe because that is where low-cost manufacturing centers and a large consumer market are located.

UPS ordered eight Boeing 767-300 freighters from Boeing in December .
