Hactl signs agreement to develop Shenyang airport as a major cargo hub
LIAONING Airport Management Group - owner of Shenyang Taoxian International Airport in north-east China - has entered into an agreement with Hong Kong's Hactl Development Holdings to develop a mainland airport as a cargo hub 150 kilometres from the North Korean border.
Shenyang Airport currently has one runway and one cargo terminal (a joint venture between the Airport, China Southern Airlines and Sinotrans).
It is served by China Southern Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Beijing Capital Airlines, China Eastern Airlines and Spring Airlines, which have established their hubs at Shenyang, a city of 5.1 million people.
In addition, China Postal Airlines and SF Airlines operates scheduled freighter services. 2015 cargo throughput was 142,000 tonnes - up 2.7 per cent on 2014.
The agreement was signed following a visit to Hactl's showcase SuperTerminal 1 facility in Hong Kong. Although specific plans are yet to be agreed between the parties, Shenyang is known to be targeting the development of cool chain and pharma traffic - a sector with which Hactl has considerable experience, as Hong Kong's first accredited GDP handler.
Said HDHL chairman Mark Whitehead: "We are delighted to be working with our friends at Shenyang. Cool chain logistics is an area of particular expertise at Hactl, and we have much experience and knowledge to share."
