Milan – 8 June 2017 - Safe Bag S.p.A., one of the leading companies worldwide in the protection and tracing of luggage for airport passengers, would like to announce that it has signed the contract to supply its integrated range of passenger services at Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport, with activities scheduled to begin in the month of June 2017.
Ottawa, after Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver (with Safe Bag already present in the last two) is the fourth most important airport in Canada, hosting a total of approximately 5 million passengers in 2016. The launch is one of six new licences scheduled to commence in the first two years of the plan for 2017-2020 approved by the Board of Directors on 5 June, as announced in the press release dated 6 June.
“The international airport of Ottawa is confirmation of the potential Safe Bag has to grow in North America – states Alessandro Notari, CEO of Safe Bag – a geographical area in which our services are extremely popular and where we believe we can continue to develop in the coming years”.
“The fact that we have secured this new licence in Canada - comments Rudolph Gentile, Chairman of Safe Bag – confirms the success of the cautionary Safe Bag Industrial Plan for 2017-20 approved last Monday in which, in the two-year period from 2017 to 2018, only two new licences were included. The challenge – continues Gentile – is clearly to exceed the estimates provided to the market, as we effectively already managed to do in 2016”.
Safe Bag, company founded by Rudolph Gentile in 1997 and led by the same, together with CEO Alessandro Notari, is one of the leading companies worldwide in the protection and tracing of luggage for airport passengers, offering an integrated portfolio of solutions designed to ensure passenger safety and comfort: bag wrapping; tracing; refund in case of loss or damage; travel accessories and products.
It has been listed in the Italian Stock Exchange since September 2013 in the AIM segment.
Safe Bag, with registered office in Gallarate (VA), has a payroll of approximately 400 workers located worldwide, serves about 2 million customers per year and is present in airports in Italy, France, Portugal, Switzerland, USA, Canada and Poland in about 80 points of sale.
The Group closed 2016 with a turnover of approximately 26.5 million euro.
