Ground handler and in-flight caterer Sats is starting a new business unit to widen its ground-handling footprint overseas, with a focus on the Asia-Pacific (Apac) region.
It is doing so by restructuring its largest division, Gateway Services, to form two new units, Gateway Services Asia-Pacific and the Singapore Hub, the company announced on July 10.
Its Gateway Services business provides ground-handling services, such as passenger and aircraft handling and baggage, security and cargo-handling services.
Sats said Gateway Services Asia-Pacific will grow the group’s market share in the region and manage its operations at foreign airports, including its network of overseas stations in Apac, via its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates.
At present, it is in 44 locations across eight countries in Apac.
The Singapore Hub will beef up the group’s ability to support the current and future needs of Changi and Seletar airports, and the aviation industries at both airports, Sats said.
“The Gateway Services restructuring reflects the strategic decision by Sats to continue investing in Singapore, while scaling its international presence to capture growth opportunities overseas,” the company said.
