Siauliu International Airport is now able to receive cargo aircraft loaded with animal and vegetable shipments and can also offer services at a veterinary post.

The station is complete with refrigeration equipment and provides opportunities for animal and vegetable exports of goods through the Lithuanian gateway.

The airport says it is negotiating with European Union flower-growing companies which are “eager” to transport flowers to Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia.

Siauliu says there is a market worth 110 million euros in the Baltic region market open to export and import of  perishable goods, animal and vegetable products.

Siauliu adds: “The emergence of the veterinary post means perishable goods, food exporters and exporters gain new access to the international airport and the new markets in Europe, Asia, Americas.”

The airport adds the veterinary station will be the “New Baltic Cargo Gate”.
