In the Right Place

Tailored space, diverse services and optimum infrastructure: CargoCity North — the main base of Lufthansa Cargo AG — and CargoCity South — where numerous major global players operate — have been specially built and organized to enable efficient logistics.

For example, CargoCity South — spanning 98 hectares — is divided into

• a cargo center for handling service providers and
• a forwarding center that is used by numerous market-leading freight forwarders as their main transfer and distribution facility.

Over 130,000 sq.m of offices and some 355,000 sq.m of hall space have been implemented here so far. In addition, 28 aircraft positions are available.

• Frozen foods
• Airmail
• Animals
• Hazardous goods
