Samskip's air freight team to focus on project cargo


Samskip is bringing together expertise from its Bremen-based project cargo business and its dedicated air freight team at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport. The joint initiative creates a focus for capabilities that extend from express air freight delivery, through breakbulk, heavy lift and out of gauge special cargoes movements by sea. The one-stop-shop service includes coordinated plane and ship chartering by Samskip.

 

Seafood volumes moving by air grew strongly in H2/2021, especially through sea-air links into global markets via Schiphol. However, a recent requirement to help customers facing production backlogs to transfer a 19 t load that would normally have been shipped by sea to an airline provided an example of how both services could be coordinated to convert to other opportunities.
