Schiphol wins Best Airport Europe in AFSCA Awards

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has re-entered the winners’ enclosure at this year’s Asian Freight & Supply Chain Awards (AFSCA), scooping the ‘Best Airport Europe’ category for the nineteenth time in the scheme’s 28 year history.

The AFSCA awards honour winning organisations for their leadership, service quality, innovation, customer relationship management and reliability. The awards cover 39 categories, and all voting is independently audited.

The Best Airport Europe award was based on Schiphol’s infrastructure, competitiveness, ongoing investment and range of cargo support services and facilities offered.

Schiphol’s Senior VP Cargo, Enno Osinga, and Business Development Director Saskia van Pelt were on hand to receive the award at a glittering presentation ceremony in Shanghai, attended by several hundred top-ranking transport-, logistics- and supply chain executives.

Says Osinga: “It is always an honour to receive any award; the discriminating criteria, highly-regulated voting process, and strong calibre of competitors in the AFSCA Awards means this is a result of which we can be particularly proud.

“But we are not complacent. Streamlining our processes and strengthening our proposition as Europe’s preferred cargo hub is a work in progress. We’ll continue to invest, innovate and support our community to the best of our ability.”
