MAR 23, 2004 (newstodate) Privately-owned Danish forwarding company PR-Shipping has set up a new office at Billund Airport, initially manned by three people.
The company also runs an office at Esbjerg with a staff of 17 people engaged in seafreight activities, which have so far constituted the backbone of the business volume.
-As customers are increasingly demanding logistics solutions comprising both sea and air transportation, and as we are already very strong in seafreight we idetified airfreight as a natural complement and a main provider of growth potentials, says Michael Wede, PR-Shipping managing director.
PR-Shipping has outsourced the physical handling of its airfreight to Cargo Center Billlund while concentrating own resources to sales and customer services.
According to Mr Wede, PR-Shipping grew out of transport of starch from Denmark to the UK as its original main business, and has since added furniture exports to the UK, USA and the Far East to its range of logistics services.
-Nearly 98 percent of our cargo loads are generated within our own system, but by adding airfreight we aim at getting deeper into the general air cargo business, where there is clearly a strong growth potential, says Michael Wede.
