FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics is the new mail handling partner of Swiss WorldCargo at Zurich Airport
FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics (FACL) is expanding its operational scope and service portfolio. At Zurich Airport, FACL is taking over airmail handling for Swiss WorldCargo, the air freight division of Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS).
FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics and Swiss WorldCargo are entering into a new partnership at Zurich Airport. The air freight subsidiary of the Greven-based logistics service provider FIEGE will be responsible for mail handling at the Swiss WorldCargo hub at the by far largest airport in Switzerland. FACL will take over the entire sorting and distribution process for all airmail letters for the import, export and transit sectors.
Alain Chisari, Head of Swiss WorldCargo, sagt: „Collaborating with reliable and innovative partners is one way to make progress possible. We are very enthusiastic to be partnering with FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics to further enhance our Mail handling procedures. By combining our strengths, we are not only developing our services further but also creating new opportunities to deliver greater value to our customers.“

For airmail handling, FACL has around 2,700 square metres available at the Zurich hub. At the beginning of March, Swiss WorldCargo officially handed over the handling area, including an automated handling system, to its new handling partner. Swiss WorldCargo expects the new cooperation to further enhance the quality and reliability of its SWISS Mail product and to offer even more flexible services for mail processing.
Benjamin Looser, Managing Director at FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics, says: „We are very grateful for the trust Swiss WorldCargo has placed in us and look forward to taking the next step in our expansion strategy with this new partnership. With our expertise in air cargo handling, automation and digitalisation, we will jointly develop airmail handling in Zurich and create added value for Swiss WorldCargo's customers”.
