Cargo JV takes off at Düsseldorf Airport
Swissport Deutschland and Flughafen Düsseldorf have successfully closed the transaction for their cargo joint venture at Düsseldorf Airport. The new joint venture, named Swissport DUS Cargo Services, started operations on 17 August 2023.
Following the signing of binding agreements earlier in the year, Swissport has successfully closed the acquisition of a 74.9% in Flughafen Düsseldorf Cargo, the cargo handling unit of Düsseldorf Airport.
In 2022, Swissport International provided airport ground services for some 186 million airline passengers (2021: 97 million) and handled roughly 4.8 million t of air freight (2021: 5.1 million) at 117 air cargo centres worldwide. (cj)
