Initially, E-commerce & Freight Forwarder Handling (EFFH) services will be managed at the Danish airport from a 2,500m² facility located at Kystvejen, 24 and will transition, to the newly-refurbished 4,800m² warehouse at Kystvejen 28 in summer 2025

The new 4,800m² facility underscores WFS’ robust commitment to customers in Copenhagen and solidifies its status as the largest air cargo handling provider at CPH. Since opening its first warehouse operation in 2006, WFS has expanded by adding two further purpose-built facilities along with a dedicated GDP-certified pharma facility to support the cluster of life science companies in the Greater Copenhagen area. Currently, it provides handling services for over 50 airline customers in Copenhagen.

“We’re pleased to announce the sale of Wallenborn Outsourcing, which we established in 2016, to WFS. This marks a significant step for our concept and lays the groundwork for even more growth in the Danish logistics space. WFS shares our vision for developing the Outsourcing concept, and we’re confident that WFS will unlock new opportunities and drive innovation. A huge thank you to our amazing team, loyal customers, and partners for their support over the years. A special thank you to Henrik Melbye for his invaluable support and contributions throughout our journey. We’re excited about the future and the opportunities ahead,” said Peter Nygaard, Wallenborn MD Scandinavia.

“Our extensive customer base in Copenhagen, along with the broader freight forwarding community in Denmark, offers considerable opportunities to develop and expand WFS’ E-commerce & Freight Forwarder Handling services. We expect a high level of further interest from both current and prospective customers seeking to outsource these types of services to an experienced partner with a proven track record of delivering EFFH solutions at major airports,” said Jimi Daniel Hansen, WFS’ Interim Managing Director Denmark & Senior Vice President Operational Excellence.

WFS currently offers EFFH services to customers at eight other airport stations in Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Liege, London Heathrow, Madrid, Paris CDG, and Stockholm Arlanda.
