The cargo centre will be on the north side of International Cargo Warehouse 1, supporting air transport and logistics in the Tokai region.
The Centrair cargo centre will be Swissport’s third domestic base after Narita International Airport and Kansai International Airport.
Thanking Central Japan International Airport Corporate, Nagoya Customs and Central Japan Airport Customs Office for its support, Kazunari Yoshida, President and Managing Director of Swissport Japan, said: “We believe demand for international air cargo will continue to grow. As a member of Japan’s logistics industry, we are eager to contribute to the development of the Tokai region, one of Japan’s three major economic zones, with our operations at Centrair.”
Stephan Kaeser, Director and COO of Swissport Japan, added: “It has been our long-time goal to open an international cargo centre at Central Japan International Airport ever since we started our cargo operations at Narita and Kansai International Airport 11 years ago. We look forward to offering our services in the Tokai market.”
