Saudi Airlines expands operation in Nigeria

By Agency Reporter Punchng.com

Saudi Airlines Cargo has appointed Global Cargo Centre as a general sales agent to oversee its operations in Nigeria, excluding Lagos.

A statement by the company on Monday said the GSA covered its operations in other parts of the country except Lagos.

Saudi Airlines Cargo flies to over 260 destinations across the globe.

The statement quoted the Global Cargo Centre’s spokesman, Mr. Samuel Fadire, as saying the organisation had already deployed enough human and material resources to Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano, where most of the operations would take place.

The statement said, “As a GSA, Global Cargo Centre will represent the Saudi Arabia based company, anywhere in Nigeria except Lagos. With a Boeing 747-400, the Airlines will operate twice weekly into Kano, with a view to increasing its frequencies in the nearest future.”

Fadire said his company’s emergence as the GSA of Saudi Airlines Cargo was a plus for the Nigerian export/import market, especially the aviation industry.

He linked the achievement to hard work, experience and professionalism in the cargo sub- sector of the aviation industry.
