In these difficult economical times (the airfreight-industry is facing), this resilience is largely due to the recovery recorded by TNT during the fourth quarter, but also the good performances from El Al Cargo,  Ethiopian Airlines and Southern Air, Icelandair, and the arrival of ABX Air and Avient (who based their European hub in Liege). In a market undergoing restructuring and very competitive circumstances, LIEGE AIRPORT can be satisfied with this result. Especially since the first half of 2009 showed losses between 25 and 30%! With 482,121 tonnes shipped in 2009, LIEGE AIRPORT is, 20 years after its establishment, the number 1 cargo airport in Belgium, and is ranked 8th in Europe for cargo.More and more animals and fresh produceAmong the characteristics of LIEGE AIRPORT, we emphasize on developing the transport and appropriate handling/distribution of flowers, Live animals and fresh produce. Therefore, in 2009 LIEGE AIRPORT has hosted 879 horses, transited 1779 tonnes of fish, 637 tonnes of live lobster, and many more perishable goods ... Veterinarians &amp; Phyto-sanitary services provide supervision 24/7 at location and with infrastructure &amp; equipment of the highest quality, which allows customers to achieve efficiency, speed and flexibility.PassengersFor its part, passenger traffic has experienced a slowdown with 356,782 passengers carried in 2009 (to 400,281 in 2008). For summer 2010, a new destination - Dalaman (Turkey) - just expanded the program for passengers.OutlookProspects for 2010 are encouraging, including, in June, the end of lengthening the main runway (which will reach up to 3,700 meters), the construction of new warehouses of 25,000 sqm and new office buildings. An amount exceeding 30 million euros will be invested, which confirms LIEGE AIRPORT's corporate mission of Regional Development (in 2009, at the  airport's centre for economic development, employment was 2,800 direct jobs and 6,700 indirect jobs).Source : Press release Liège Airport - 22 january 2010  </description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/liege-airport-best-cargo-airport-in-belgium.html</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 Jan 2010 18:26:33 +0100</pubDate></item><item><title>Belgium ranks 9 at the World Bank\'s \"Logistics Performance Index\"</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/belgium-ranks-9-at-the-world-bank-s-logistics-performance-index.html</link><description>Global Trade Logistics Improving, but more needed to boost recoveryThe capacity of countries to efficiently move goods and connect manufacturers and consumers with international markets is improving around the world, but much more progress is needed to spur faster economic growth and help firms benefit from trade recovery, according to a new World Bank Group survey on trade logistics.Germany is the top performer among the 155 economies ranked in the Logistics Performance Indicators (LPI), which are included in the report Connecting to Compete 2010: Trade Logistics in the Global Economy. The study is based on the most comprehensive world survey of international freight forwarders and express carriers.“Economic competitiveness is relentlessly driving countries to strengthen performance, and improving trade logistics is a smart way to deliver more efficiencies, lower costs and added economic growth,” said World Bank Group President Robert B. Zoellick, who is visiting Berlin January 13 -15 to discuss global development and economic issues. “Streamlining the connections among markets, manufacturers, farmers and consumers offers tremendous growth and investment opportunities and should be a top focus for developing country growth strategies. As we issue this global report, I'm pleased to be in Germany, the top performer on efficient logistics.”According to the LPI, high income economies dominate the top logistics rankings, with most of them occupying important places in global and regional supply chains. By contrast, the ten lowest performing countries are almost all from the low and lower income groups.Although the study shows a substantial “logistics gap” between rich countries and most developing countries, it finds positive trends in some areas essential to logistics performance and trade. Some of them include the modernization of customs, use of information technology, and development of private logistics services.“Following our first survey in 2007, many developing countries have improved their capacity to connect to international markets, which is a key ingredient for competitiveness and economic growth,” said Otaviano Canuto, World Bank Vice President for Poverty Reduction and Economic Management. “But if developing countries want to come out of the crisis in a stronger and more competitive position, they need to invest in better trade logistics.”“Countries with better logistics performance can grow faster, become more competitive and increase their level of investment,” said Bernard Hoekman, World Bank Trade Department Director. “Our research shows that increasing logistics performance in low income countries to the middle-income average could boost trade by around 15 per cent and benefit all firms and consumers through lower prices and better quality services.”The report, headed by World Bank Group economists Jean Francois Arvis and Monica Alina Mustra, notes that among developing economies logistics performance transcends the level of per capita income: Many countries perform better than what their income level would suggest. The ten most significant over-performers include China (27), India (47), Uganda (66), Vietnam (53), Thailand (35), the Philippines (44), and South Africa (28).Likewise, the countries with significant improvement in performance between the two surveys (the 2007 and 2010 LPI) are often those which implemented comprehensive logistics and trade facilitation reforms earlier, such as Colombia, Brazil, and Tunisia.In terms of how developing countries are doing per region, South Africa (28) is the top performer from Africa; China (27) from East Asia; Poland (30) from Central and Eastern Europe; Brazil (41) from Latin America; Lebanon (33) from the Middle East; and India (47) from South Asia.According to the study, logistics performance is heavily influenced by the quality of public sector institutions and the effective coordination of border clearance processes among all border management agencies. In this area, customs performs better than many other agencies, pointing to the need for border management reforms. In low performing countries, on average, half of the containers are physically inspected and one container out of seven at least twice.Other areas for improvement include better transport policies, increasing competition in trade-related services such as trucking, freight forwarding and railways; and better trade-related infrastructure. For many low-income countries the most binding constraints are often in logistics services and international transit systems. Given they perform better on many other indicators, improving trade infrastructure is often reported to be a priority for middle-income countries.The World Bank Group has a number of projects designed to improve trade logistics in developing countries. The US$250 million East Africa Trade and Transport Facilitation Project improved the corridor infrastructure and upgraded the main border crossing between Uganda and Kenya at Malaba, reducing border crossing times from three days to three hours. In Tunisia, a US$250 million operation is improving competitiveness by reducing trade costs and streamlining border clearance procedures. And in Afghanistan, the Bank is providing funding for a US$31.2 million project to modernize and computerize four major border crossings, increasing customs revenues from US$50 million when the project started in 2004 to over US$399 million in 2008.In addition, the Bank is working with IBM, Microsoft and the Global Express Association as part of a public-private partnership on “Aid for Trade Facilitation.” The objective is to develop pilot projects in developing countries that apply innovative IT solutions to streamline border procedures.Source : World Bank - 15 January 2010To download the full report, CLICK HERE </description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/belgium-ranks-9-at-the-world-bank-s-logistics-performance-index.html</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Jan 2010 09:22:02 +0100</pubDate></item><item><title>Wallonia is the first logistic region in Europe !</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/wallonia-is-the-first-logistic-region-in-europe.html</link><description>Wallonia is the first logistic region in Europe. This is the conclusion of a survey lead by Cushman &amp; Wakefield and published today by Logistics in Wallonia en AWEX. This survey has been presented on the 10th of december during a press conference by Jean-Claude Marcourt, Vice-Président of the Walloon Region en Minister of Economy, SMEs, Foreign Trade and New Technologies.  The report makes a ranking of top locations for distribution and logistics in Europe, based upon macro-economic parameters. This is done by using a ranked-matrix method for 61 European regions and for the optimal location of a European Distribution Centre (EDC, not a regional logistics centre).As in previous reports, published in 2004 and 2006 by the Flanders Institute for Logistics (VIL), several Belgian provinces come in the top of this ranking. Liège comes out as the number 1 location, closely followed by Limburg (B), Hainaut, and Nord-Pas-de-Calais. The main reasons for this top-ranking are :excellent access to the main European markets ( the core West-German markets like the Ruhrgebiet,  the core Benelux markets like Randstad and the Antwerp/Brussels area , Paris/Ile-de-France and the greater London area)a central geographic location that is optimal to cover a wide range of European marketstop transport infrastructure and volume, close to main ports or with good multimodal links to these portslow costs for land, warehouses and labourlabour force that is available, highly productive, skilled for supply chain jobs and with a good language knowledgeThe top-15 consists of regions from Belgium, Northern France (Nord-Pas-de-Calais and Alsace) and Western Germany (Düsseldorf, Koblenz, Köln and Arnsberg).Regions from the Netherlands are, given their history as important logistics locations, often perceived as top regions for distribution; in this macro-economic ranking they score relatively average (Limburg (NL)/ Venlo comes on 23rd place, Noord-Brabant/Eindhoven 31st place, Zuid-Holland/ Rotterdam 37th place). The main reasons for this relatively low score of the Dutch regions are :relatively high costs for land and warehouses, combined with a severe urban planning system that makes it difficult to guarantee the required space for future logistics property developmentroad congestion problems, especially in the Randstad areaslabourforce availability has proven to be relatively limited in periods of strong economic activityThe matrix used in this study is based upon the quantifiable variables that play a role in the decision to locate an EDC; the relative weight of the variables in the matrix is based upon surveys amongst decision makers, like the European Cities Monitor survey that Cushman &amp; Wakefield publishes on a yearly basis.Over the years these weights have shifted a little: the relative importance of Labour (Available Labourforce / Labour productivity) was given more weight (9%) than in the 2004 and 2006 studies, especially because available labourforce was a growing problem over 2007 and 2008 :Ranking Nuts - 2 regions 2009CostsTransport SystemAccessibilitySupplyLabourKnow-HowSCORERanking 2009Weight %21%29%29%9%9%3%TotalLIEGE4,11,51,02,42,62,52,11LIMBURG-B (Genk-Hasselt)3,62,01,21,22,91,72,12HAINAUT (Charleroi)3,22,21,71,02,13,32,23NORD-PAS-DE-CALAIS (Lille)2,82,53,02,12,53,82,74NAMUR3,72,42,04,32,13,52,75LUXEMBOURG - B (Arlon)3,33,41,52,33,64,02,76ALSACE (Strasbourg)3,72,82,12,83,83,82,97OOST-VLAANDEREN (Gent)5,82,02,02,53,22,02,98ANTWERPEN7,41,52,02,42,01,03,09ARNSBERG4,73,61,52,04,03,33,110KÖLN8,61,80,73,03,42,53,111KOBLENZ6,03,11,02,84,53,03,212…MAZOWIECKIE (Warszawa)4,75,28,21,84,56,05,653TIROL (Innsbruck)9,04,65,15,04,44,35,754GREATER LONDON12,12,63,96,07,62,05,755SW SCOTLAND (Glasgow)8,84,17,13,54,53,05,956SYDSVERIGE (Malmö/Öresund)9,04,86,84,04,33,06,157VASTSVERIGE (Göteborg)8,45,57,34,34,13,06,358CATALUNA (Barcelona)10,43,97,84,63,24,06,459COM.

According to this forecast Liège will not be able to hold its nr 1 position : it is extremely well located, but the limited availability of land give this region a slight disadvantage versus Hainaut who will be nr1 in our view. This reflects the growing importance of good transport infrastructure towards markets south of the actual core European logistics regions; the Seine-Nord Europe canal junction that will upgrade the inland waterway between the Paris region and the North of France and Belgium also increases the score of Nord-Pas-de-Calais and Hainaut.The gradual shift of the centre of gravity of the European markets towards central Europe will result in a rise of German regions like Köln and Düsseldorf; the good geographical position towards main German and central-European markets will keep Limburg (B) and Liège in a strong 2 and 3 position.Forecast 2020 NUTS - 2 regionsCostsTransport systemAccessibilitySupplyLabourKnow-HowSCOREForecasted Ranking 2020Weight %19%27%27%8%15%3%TotalHAINAUT (Charleroi)5,92,41,81,02,33,02,81LIMBURG - B (Genk-Hasselt)5,92,21,71,33,31,72,92LIEGE6,71,91,22,33,32,52,93NORD-PAS-DE-CALAIS6,62,32,51,32,23,53,14DÜSSELDORF9,31,80,93,32,32,53,25KÖLN10,31,70,83,32,32,53,36ALSACE (Strasbourg)6,12,82,12,04,33,53,47ARNSBERG7,33,51,42,03,03,33,58VLAAMS BRABANT (Vilvoorde)10,12,11,52,81,71,83,59SAARLAND6,73,62,11,72,83,33,510To obtain this survey : DOWNLOAD </description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/wallonia-is-the-first-logistic-region-in-europe.html</guid><pubDate>Wed, 09 Dec 2009 12:51:33 +0100</pubDate></item><item><title>Marco Polo: Fresh air for European freight transport</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/marco-polo-fresh-air-for-european-freight-transport.html</link><description>The European Commission has adopted new rules to broaden the scope of its successful Marco Polo programme, which has been supporting sustainable transport projects since 2003. The programme gives financial support to the transport industry in order to reduce road freight on our congested roads or to shift it to other more sustainable transport modes, like shipping, rail or inland waterways. The conditions for participation have been improved to further increase its appeal to the industry, will apply to the next call for proposals due for the beginning of next year.Vice-President Antonio Tajani, responsible for transport, commented: "The Marco Polo programme plays a vital role in getting Europe moving. We want to build on that success by making it easier for companies to participate in this process. The rules adopted today can help them change towards sustainable transport services. "The amendments include a general reduction of the minimum thresholds for eligible projects, with a special reduced threshold for projects aiming to shift road freight to inland waterways. These changes will facilitate access to projects presented by smaller companies in general and inland waterways operators in particular. In addition it will be easier for these companies to apply for funding since the existence of a consortium for the application is no longer required.The period going from the day of application to the signature of the grant agreements has also been shortened, giving beneficiaries quicker feedback from the Commission.Finally, apart from other simplification measures, flexibility is added to the deadlines for completion of projects objectives and modal shift is extended to empty containers and transport vehicles if effectively taken out of the roads.The projects supported by the first Marco Polo programme from 2003 until 2006 have already resulted in taking 31 billion tonne-kilometres from our roads, the equivalent of nearly 1.5 million trucks travelling from Paris to Berlin. Although this was already a substantial help to reduce congestion on the European roads, the second Marco Polo programme has seen its budget increase fourfold to €450 million for the period 2007/2013. With this budget the current objective of the programme is to shift or avoid a substantial part of the forecasted increase in international road transport, estimated in 20 billion tonne-kilometres per year.Source : Press Release Europa - 9 octobre 2009</description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/marco-polo-fresh-air-for-european-freight-transport.html</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2009 11:33:48 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>Commission clears the way for a single European Road Toll Service</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/commission-clears-the-way-for-a-single-european-road-toll-service.html</link><description>The European Commission today adopted a decision setting out the essential technical specifications and requirements needed to launch a European Electronic Toll Service (EETS) which will enable road users to easily pay tolls throughout the whole European Union (EU) thanks to one subscription contract with one service provider and one single on-board unit. EETS will be available on all infrastructures in the entire Community such as motorways, tunnels and bridges where toll can be paid using on-board equipment. EETS will eventually limit cash transactions at toll stations, thereby improving traffic flow and reducing congestion.European Commission Vice-President Antonio Tajani, in charge of Transport, considers this decision to be the most important improvement for drivers since the abolition of border controls, stating that "the European Electronic Toll Service will enable road users to easily pay tolls throughout the whole European Union thanks to one subscription contract with one service provider and one single on-board unit".Electronic toll systems were introduced in several European countries in the early 1990s. Most systems operate with an on-board unit communicating the vehicle's characteristics to the road operators in view to determining the toll, for instance based on the vehicle's weight and size.However, the various national and local electronic road toll systems are generally incompatible and can only communicate with their respective on-board units. These non-interoperable road toll systems especially hinder international road transport. For example, to travel from Portugal to Denmark five or more on-board units might be needed on the vehicle's dashboard, each unit being covered by a particular contract for a particular road operator. For the transporter this entails time-consuming paperwork and costly administrative burden in reconciling travel data, received invoices, contracts clauses and payment orders.The Commission Decision adopted today also lays down the rights and obligations of toll chargers, service providers, and users. Users will be able to subscribe to the service provider of their choice. Toll chargers will communicate the tolls due to the service providers, who will eventually invoice the users. Tolls paid via EETS may not exceed the corresponding national or local tolls.EETS will be available within three years for all road vehicles above 3.5 tonnes or allowed to carry more than nine passengers, including the driver. It will be available for all other vehicles within five years. Source : Presse Release Europa - 6th October 2009</description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/commission-clears-the-way-for-a-single-european-road-toll-service.html</guid><pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2009 12:19:16 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>Avient chooses Liege as its European hub</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/avient-chooses-liege-as-its-european-hub.html</link><description>Avient has decided to move its European hub from Vatry (France) to Liege Airport. Avient is an English airline that is active mainly in Africa but also in the Middle-East and in Asia. It carried 44,000 tonnes of freight in 2008, mainly perishable goods (flowers, food, fish, etc.)."This relocation presents us with numerous opportunities for Avient's future development, adding considerable advantages to our operational service capacities", explains Andrew Smith, Avient's Managing Director. "Liege Airport already accommodates a number of freight operators and makes an attractive platform with infrastructure designed to encourage the development of air companies", adds Mr. Andrew Smith.The transfer of Avient's operations from Vatry to Liege went very smoothly thanks to Liege Aiport's operational flexibility and that of AviaPartner Cargofor the handling. The company will operate two full warehouses totalling 12,500 m² and the best equipment possible for handling perishable products. In addition to using Aviapartner Cargo Liege's expertise, Avient will have its own offices and its freight team.For José Happart, President of Liege Airport, Avient's choice confirms the airport's strategy: "It's obviously excellent news for our airport platform.Avient will keep 3 planes and bring a hundred direct jobs to the site. Th equality of the services offered by Liege Airport (handling, maintenance,customs, transport, etc.) is being increasingly recognized."The first Avient plane will land on Liege Airport's runway this Thursday, the 10th September at 09.45. 6 weekly flights are scheduled and charter flights will be arranged according to the demand. Three DC10-30Fs will be used for the daily rotation.For Liege Airport, these operations represent a growth in traffic of about 50,000 tonnes per year and confirm Liege Airport's specialization in the perishable goods sector. This sector represents approximately 25 % of the cargo traffic that passes through Liege Airport.Contact Press: Valérie Hauglustaine, Press Attaché : +32 4 234 85 76 – vha@liegeairport.comSource : Press Release - Liege airpor - 09 September 2009</description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/avient-chooses-liege-as-its-european-hub.html</guid><pubDate>Thu, 10 Sep 2009 14:09:22 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>Opening DGM office in Liege</title><link>http://clusters.wallonie.be/transport-logistique/en/news/opening-dgm-office-in-liege.html</link><description>The transport of dangerous goods requires a very high safety factor along with the observation of constantly changing regulations.

This joint venture is a business partnership between DAC &amp; MINILINER. The contracts between DAC and Cargo companies have been officially signed and this new strategic cooperation between DAC and partners will offer premium and in-night services through the Spanish domestic networks and parts of Portugal which will start from June 3rd 2009.Dutch Air Cargo is active within the niche market, especially within the in-night market, but also offering other Cargo services. This in-night service is quite unique. Within this network goods can be delivered in a very fast manner Same Day or Next Day. Door-to-door is also offered from Madrid throughout Spain enabling deliveries before 8.30h and even with a connection to parts of Portugal with deliveries possible before 11.00h.Further information can be found on the website (www.dutchaircargo.eu).
