Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a SATS company, has announced it will open a fourth warehouse facility at Copenhagen Airport to support the expansion of its specialised E-commerce & Freight Forwarder Handling (EFFH) services in Scandinavia.
WFS has also announced it will take over the existing customer portfolio from Wallenborn Outsourcing in Copenhagen from Wallenborn Transports, one of Europe’s largest air-cargo road feeder services (RFS) operators, on 1 March 2025.
The EFFH services will initially be managed at the Danish airport in a 2,500 metre-squared (m²) facility located at Kystvejen 24 and, from next summer, move into the newly-refurbished 4,800m² warehouse at Kystvejen 28.
The launch of EFFH services in Copenhagen will expand WFS’ operations to include value added solutions.
“We’re excited to announce the sale of Wallenborn Outsourcing, which we founded back in 2016, to WFS,” said Peter Nygaard, Wallenborn MD Scandinavia.
“This marks a significant step for our concept and sets the stage for even more growth in the Danish logistics space.”

“Our large customer base in Copenhagen and the wider freight forwarding community in Denmark present significant opportunities to establish and grow WFS’ E-commerce & Freight Forwarder Handling services,” said Jimi Daniel Hansen, WFS’ Interim Managing Director Denmark & Senior Vice President Operational Excellence.
“We expect a high level of further interest from other existing and new customers looking to outsource these types of services to an experienced partner with a proven track record of delivering EFFH solutions at major airports.”
