APR 01, 2003 (newstodate): KLM Cargo Denmark says the company sees its ex-Denmark export airfreight volumes stable despite bleak over-all industry trends.
-KLM Cargo, with eight staff members, has managed to gain market share, and is currently #2 behind SAS Cargo but ahead of Lufthansa Cargo, says Soren Rorstrom, manager KLM Cargo Denmark.
Rorstrom says one reason is the sustained trend among leading forwarders to use Copenhagen Airport as their freight gateway for Scandinavian air cargo which is trucked into Denmark and consolidated for onward transportation.
Also North Atlantic cargo, comprising some 40-45 percent of KLM Cargo's total sales in Denmark, is a strong component of the company's strong standing in the Danish market.
According to industry sources, SAS Cargo currently holds about 25 percent of the Danish market, with Lufthansa Cargo taking another 11-12 percent.
