APR 15, 2003 (newstodate):Austrian GSA company, Aircargo Service Network, is seeing a strong performance with a 10 percent share of the airfreight market in Slovenia, poised to become a full member of EU.
-The market, producing some 7-8,000 tonnes of air cargo per year, comprises a large number of smaller enterprises, with the pharmaceutical industry as a major segment generating some 30 percent of all export air cargo, says Ger Daniels, owner and managing director of the company.
According to Daniels, the split between Slovenian air cargo imports and exports is roughly 60/40, and the major competitors among the airlines are KLM, Air France, Lufthansa Cargo, and Austrian Airlines.
-Our office is staffed by two local people, fully focussed on sales, bookings and marketing towards freight forwarders as all administrative tasks are performed by our back office at Linz, Daniels says.
The Slovenian market comprises a few major foreign-owned forwarders including Schenker, and a great number of small, local companies.
Daniels says Slovenia is a low-risk, growth-oriented and stable economy that has performed a very successful transition to a free market economy.
