Menzies Aviation, the leading service partner to the world’s airports and airlines, has announced the official opening of its new cargo facility at Maputo International Airport (MPM) in Mozambique.
With this facility, Menzies can now handle cargo at MPM, increasing Mozambique’s freight capacity. This represents a significant expansion in Menzies’ footprint across East Africa, with the company’s regional customer portfolio set to increase over the coming months and years.
The new cargo warehouse enables Menzies to offer high quality, efficient and safe services to airlines, including launch customers Airlink and Qatar Airways.
“This cutting-edge facility will allow us to provide best in class services to our airline customers while supporting East Africa’s air cargo sector. This represents the next exciting step in Menzies’ cargo expansion strategy, which has seen us expand our footprint right across the globe,” AlAnood AlSuwaidi, Senior Vice President Cargo (MEAA), Menzies Aviation, said.
Menzies Aviation has been operational at Maputo International Airport since 2018, operating as National Aviation Services until 2022. It launched two exclusive, contemporary lounges at the airport’s international and domestic terminals and later expanded its portfolio to deliver comprehensive ‘Meet and Assist’ and ground handling services at the busiest airport in Mozambique in 2019.
