Air Freight at Erfurt airport
At Erfurt Airport, state-of-the-art equipment and perfect logistics are used to handle air cargo. The ground transportation staff are
excellently trained, service-oriented and ready to ensure short cargo machine turn-around times.
The following logistics companies are located at Erfurt Airport:
TNT Express GmbH
TNT Express flies to Erfurt
Quick, reliable and, most importantly, safe – the staff at the Erfurt office and the local air cargo hub of TNT Express GmbH ensure urgent
deliveries arrive punctually and safely. TNT Express is one of the leading specialists for worldwide express services for business clients.
The 31 German branch offices are part of a global network of more than 1,200 depots, hubs and sorting centres. 54,000 staff - of which
4,400 are in Germany - deliver around 4.1 million documents, packages and freight items to over 200 countries every week. More than
23,400 vehicles and 44 aircraft are used for transportation - including two brand new Boeing 747 long haul freighters.
In light of the EU eastern expansion, Erfurt plays a special role within the global TNT network: the premium provider is already turning over 13,000 tonnes in the lush heart of Germany, and records two-digit annual growth, prompting the express service provider to buy a new 3,000 square metre building at Erfurt airport in January 2007. The new building is one of its kind for TNT in Germany, because it combines the office, air and road hub – the junction for the air and road network – under one roof.
“Turnover has proven to be even more flexible since the move from Ichtershausen”, says Cornelia Stöckmann, manager of the Erfurt office. “We save a transport route and can make the deliveries even faster, enabling us to collect international express cargo deliveries later – a real gain for our regional clients.
The new building is also a clear commitment to the business location of Erfurt, because a functional express network promotes economic
development of the region and gives our clients the opportunity to establish themselves on new markets."
Through the six TNT Air Hubs across Germany, all German economic regions have direct access to TNT’s worldwide flight network with connections to 62 airports in 21 countries. One of these cargo machines, which flies international deliveries in and out, starts up at the Thuringia base every working day, either morning or night, making TNT the only company in the courier, express and logistics sector to have direct connections with Erfurt airport.
However, the express service provider is distinguished from most of its rivals in many other areas: The men and women in orange transport all deliveries quickly, but also particularly reliably and with the highest security requirements. Because of these high standards in the air safety sector, TNT has been acknowledged by the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (LBA) as an “Officialised Agent”, as the company has been fulfilling the safety requirements of the LBA for years.
In 2006, TNT Express was elected Germany’s most customer-oriented service provider by the trade journal, St. Gallen University and
Steria Mummert Consulting. And TNT Express Germany is also a leader on a European scale: in early 2007, TNT Express was awarded
the “European Business Award” in the “customer orientation” category.
