Chapman Freeborn has continued its expansion with the opening of a new office in Toronto, Canada, on January 2nd.
The initial focus of the new Canadian venture will be to consider this vast market as a number of territories and tackle them simultaneously and in conjunction with sales personnel from Chapman Freeborn USA and elsewhere in the group.
Initial areas of focus will be the oil & gas, automotive and mining industries, as well as their respective cargo chartering possibilities.
Chapman Freeborn Canada manager Ehab Matta will also further consolidate the company’s existing relationships with Canadian carriers and those international airlines operating into Canada at a local level.
Although the expansive cargo market is at this point the priority, it is also an objective to further develop the executive business, an area in which the company’s US operations in Atlanta and Fort Lauderdale already undertake a great deal of activity.
Established in 1973, Chapman Freeborn is the largest air charter broker in the world with 38 offices in a total of 24 countries worldwide, and annual group turnover in excess of $450 million.
The company specialises in moving oversize, hazardous, precious and bizarre cargo, and accounts for more than 50% of the global market for cargo charter operations.
