SELECTED AS KNOWN CONSIGNOR OF AIRPORT DELIVERIES AT FRANKFURT AM MAIN AIRPORT.
Deliveries to the apron of Frankfurt Airport mean intensive controls and can result in additional wait times.
Fraport must subject airport supplies from an unknown consignor to intensive screening. Any goods that cannot be screened at the access points to the security-restricted area are accompanied by security staff who will also monitor the unloading process and make sure that no prohibited articles are being introduced into the security-restricted areas. The screenings can result in additional wait times for unknown consignors.
With the status of known consignor of airport supplies, legislation has extended the principle of the secure supply chain known in air cargo security to items that are sold, used, or provided on the airport site itself. Central Global Cargo complies with the security measures required by law and has, consequently, been designated as a known consignor by Fraport.
BIG ADVANTAGE – UNNECESSARY WAIT TIMES
Since Central Global Cargo implements the security measures as a known consignor and has achieved a legally compliant security standard, the security staff do not have to perform checks on deliveries made by the consignor. Only the checks on persons and vehicles continue to be conducted. As a result, we can minimize waiting times for apron deliveries by a large part."
