GROUND handler menzies Aviation has expanded its presence in Africa with the opening of a new cargo facility at Maputo International Airport (MPM) in Mozambique.
Menzies Aviation has been operational at MPM since 2018, operating as National Aviation Services until 2022 and providing two lounges, according to London's Air Cargo News.
The new facility means that Menzies can now handle cargo at MPM and increases Mozambique's freight capacity.
Menzies said that the new facility represents a 'significant expansion' in its footprint across East Africa, with the company's regional customer portfolio set to increase over the coming months and years.
Launch customers for the new facility are Airlink and Qatar Airways.
The new facility is not the only development for Menzies in Africa this year.
In May, the Menzies Aviation-Siginon Aviation partnership was awarded IATA's CEIV Pharma certification for its cargo handling facility at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) in Nairobi, Kenya.
