Swissport is now offering aviation ground services at 31 airports across Africa.

Swissport started operations at the airport of the coastal city of Mombasa, Kenya, at the end of Dec 2022. The first aircraft served by the local Swissport team was a Flightlink Aviation flight from Zanzibar Island.

The services offered in Mombasa include passenger services and ramp handling, with the potential to expand to freighter handling. Swissport operates a large air cargo centre at Nairobi International (NBO).

Racheal Ndegwa, managing director of Swissport International in Kenya: “Our teams are well-trained and can build on extensive experience from the Nairobi operation. Mombasa was a strategic and natural next step.”

Dirk Goovaerts: "Africa is a very important region for Swissport. We are intensifying our efforts to extend the network for our airline customers, both in countries where we already have a presence and at new airports."
