Most appealing air cargo products Perishables & Flowers
Schiphol is a key hub for flowers and perishables. Discover how innovative logistics enable fast and efficient global distribution.
Well-known and also most appealing air cargo products are flowers and fresh food (perishables). The Flower Auction Aalsmeer is the hub of the international flower trade and Schiphol facilitates this by making processes as fast as possible and by continuously innovating. About 22% of total imports at Schiphol consist of flowers. Many flowers are flown in from East Africa and South America.
Some of these are either auctioned the same day, delivered directly or transferred to North America or Asia.
In addition, Schiphol is a hub for large quantities of fish from Scandinavia, which is transported around the world via Schiphol. Large quantities of vegetables and exotic fruit also arrive via air cargo. Schiphol's high-frequency network plays a crucial role here.
