Officials of Nigeria Customs Services (NCS) Skyway Aviation Handling Company Limited (SAHCOL) and United Parcel Service (UPS) during a tour of the ground handler’s warehousing facility in Lagos on Wednesday.
Skyway Aviation Handling Company Limited (SAHCOL) has added Allied Air and United Parcel Service (UPS) to her estimable list of clienteles in Nigeria.
SAHCOL, a member of the SIFAX Group of companies is an aviation ground handling company, offering services in passenger, ramp, cargo handlings and warehousing, aviation security, baggage reconciliation, crew bus and executive lounge services and other related ground handling services
According to General Manager, Corporate Communications & IT, Basil Agboarumi, the relocation of Allied Air operations to SAHCOL took effect from October 2, 2017, making SAHCOL the official ground handling partner to the airline’s Ramp and Cargo operations across Nigeria.
Allied Air, which commenced operation in 1998 as a Nigerian national flag Cargo Airline carrier, is designated on numerous routes across Africa under the Bi-lateral Air Services Agreement (BASA) and is the first IOSA certified Cargo airline in Nigeria.
In a similar development, United Parcel Services (UPS) has also moved its cargo warehousing services to SAHCOL, consequently making SAHCOL the hub of UPS consignment warehousing.
UPS, which was founded in 1907, is a package delivery company and a provider of supply chain management solution in more than 175 countries and territories worldwide.
The commencement of UPS operation at the SAHCOL warehouse on November 7, 2017, was graced by crème de la crème in the aviation freight/cargo business.
Testimonies from clients who have at various times relocated their businesses to SAHCOL proved that satisfaction gained from doing business with SAHCOL is second to none in the Nigerian Aviation Ground Handling Services.
However the ground handler has said is not resting on it oars, as it is poised to continue to partner with its clients in making aviation ground services in Nigeria be at par with global best practices.
