and National Aviation Services (NAS)
joint venture company, GLS - NAS broke
ground in Monrovia for a new 2,700
square meter cargo terminal at Roberts

The Roberts Air Cargo Center (RACC),

The size of the facility currently
fulfills a 14-year forecasted baseline
demand and can be further expanded
up to 3,553 square meters. The current

Part of a 25-year air cargo operations
concession awarded to GLS by the Government of Liberia, GLS NAS is tasked
with the design, finance, build, maintenance, operation and transfer (DFBMOT)
of this new, modern cargo facility at RIA.
Axel Coulibaly, General Manager
of GLS NAS said:"GLS NAS has been
operating at RIA for over a year, during
which our operational improvements have
helped grow the airport's cargo handling
capacity by almost 60 percent. With the
new warehouse we will not only build
capacity but also offer diverse solutions
for a variety of industries dealing with
perishables, fresh produce, livestock,
pharmaceuticals and temperature sensitive cargo. We can also handle high value
shipments that require special security.
All of which will serve to attract more
cargo airlines at the airport while focusing
on safety and security."
The state-of-the-art warehouse will
be one of its kind with extended racking
for storage, temperature controlled cold
storage, walk in freezers, dangerous goods
storage, a vault, mail area and five loading
docks that can be extended up to eight.
The facility will also house a dedicated
area for customs inspections and other

self-sufficient in terms of power, water
and sewage disposal. It also includes
sustainable design features based on the
principles of "Net Zero Emissions" and
"Green Building" design.
