According to a press release sent to the Budapest Business Journal, the agreement supports Hungary’s national goal of becoming the most competitive air cargo hub in Central Europe. The partnership focuses on leveraging synergies that will enable continued growth in logistics—one of the country’s key strategic industries—over the next decade.
As part of the agreement, the two parties will explore long-term cooperation opportunities and are committed to maximizing synergies that could lead to shared value creation and growth. This effort will help ensure that Ference Liszt International Airport remains the most competitive multimodal hub in Central Europe, Waberer’s says.
Waberer’s launched its air and sea freight operations two years ago, and the strong demand for high value-added services—such as export and import air transportation of both general and special goods—has since been confirmed. The company’s previously announced strategy places a strong focus on expanding and diversifying its service portfolio. Air freight is one of the areas with significant growth potential, and Waberer’s says that it aims to become a key player in this segment both in Hungary and internationally.
“The cooperation with Budapest Airport is a logical and professionally well-founded step for us. The airport is not only the center of domestic air cargo handling but also one of the region’s fastest-growing cargo gateways, which has developed at an exemplary pace in recent years. We are committed to making our company a leading force in the development of domestic logistics, in which multimodal participation is essential. Our goal as Hungary’s largest logistics company is to deliver significant added value to Budapest Airport and the air cargo ecosystem,” said Zsolt Barna, chairman and CEO of Waberer’s Group.
