Jan 26, 2017 (newstodate): As oil and gas-related businesses are rather low-key these years, air logistics for shipment of pharmaceuticals play an increasingly important role for airport and airlines.
This is the case for AF/KLM Cargo as well, where Soren Rorstrom with a long track record in the business serves as International Sales Manager Pharmaceuticals Pharmaceuticals in the Nordic region.
-For AF/KLM Cargo, the pharma cargo segment has indeed been increasing in 2016, both as to tonnage and revenues, says Mr Rorstrom.
-In the Nordic market, pharma volumes from Norway are very limited as seafood reigns supreme. The Danish market performs strongly, Sweden has been much dominated by AstraZeneca but there is actually a host of smaller enterprises in this segment that are developing as well. Finally, Finland also generates pharma shipments and here potentials are ripe, too. So all in all, the is much potential to be tapped in the Nordic region.
-For AF/KLM Cargo Nordic, pharmaceuticals now account for some 15-20 of our total sales and compared to other cargo products revenues are still attractive. But competition is strong as well as any airline is turning attention to this segment as profits from general cargo are dwindling, says Mr Rorstrom.
