The ground services provider signed three new contracts with Qatar Airways in Sweden and Denmark, marking a major expansion of services provided to the airline globally.
Under the new agreements, Menzies will provide ground handling, de-icing and lounge services at Stockholm Arlanda airport, Copenhagen airport and Gothenburg Landvetter airport. The five-year contract will begin in January 2020 and covers just over 2,000 flights a year.
The achievement of the new contracts ties in with Menzies’ organic growth agenda to expand its geographical footprint and customer base. The company reports that revenue is increasing at a rate above normal market growth each year.
Giles Wilson, Menzies Aviation CEO, said: “The addition of a further three stations for Qatar Airways in Scandinavia, represents a major expansion of Menzies Aviation services with this leading global airline. I am delighted that they have chosen Menzies to deliver the highest of standards that they demand and look forward continuing to develop our relationship with Qatar Airways internationally.”
“These wins, along with others we have announced recently, are squarely down to the quality of the Menzies Aviation people and our renewed focus on our commercial offering.”
