Groupe Europe Handling signs long-term deal with CHAMP Cargosystems

CHAMP Cargosystems and Groupe Europe Handling have signed a long-term strategic partnership that will see the ground handler benefit from modernisation, digitalisation and innovation.

Groupe Europe Handling’s cargo division at Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport will migrate to Cargospot Handling, CHAMP’s comprehensive cargo operations and terminal management system that drives the complete cargo handling process, says a release from CHAMP.

"The software is simple and efficient for ground handlers and terminal operators to use with full messaging capabilities, complete import and export handling, advanced management reporting tools that is powering some of the largest ground handling operations around the globe today."

As Groupe Europe Handling moves from its traditional ramp handling services to cargo handling operations at Charles De Gaulle with its subsidiary Europe Handling Cargo, CHAMP’s technology was chosen as the preferred solution as it seeks to streamline everyday workflow, improved efficiency gains and increased productivity, the release added. "By migrating to Cargospot Handling in 2024, Groupe Europe Handling will also be supported by CHAMP’s library of APIs, integrations, and partnerships within the air cargo industry. By making use of CHAMP’s open and interconnected systems, Groupe Europe Handling will enjoy the competitive advantage that comes with digitalisation and collaboration."

Bruno Lanfumey, Cargo Operations Director, Europe Handling Cargo says: “We are looking forward to working with CHAMP Cargosystems over the coming years and hope to enjoy a fruitful and productive partnership. We selected CHAMP based upon my experience knowing that Cargospot Handling is the most robust, functionally rich system on the market today. Our migration to Cargospot Handling is an exciting development for our cargo division and will simplify our processes while supporting us through our ambitious growth plans.”

David Linford, VP Sales & Account Management, CHAMP adds: “It’s our pleasure to work with Groupe Europe Handling and assist them with an enhanced cargo handling software experience. Cargospot Handling is the system of choice for Europe Handling Cargo, providing them with the simplicity and ease of use whilst being able to handle the most complex handling needs of their business. I am excited for the future with Groupe Europe Handling and wish to take the opportunity to thank Bruno for his unwavering trust in CHAMP. We look forward to the partnership and journey ahead.”

Groupe Europe Handling opened its cargo handling subsidiary, Europe Handling Cargo, at Charles De Gaulle in November 2022. Internationally, the group holds key positions in England, Ireland, Serbia, Saudi Arabia and Africa, the release added.
