SAS sells cleaning company at Copenhagen Airport

Xinhua, January 16, 2015 Adjust font size:

Scandinavian airline SAS has sold its cabin cleaning business at Copenhagen Airport, it was reported Thursday.

For an undisclosed sum, SAS sold its cabin cleaning company of 170 employees at Copenhagen Airport to the French food service and facilities management corporation Sodexo, according to Scandinavian travel industry website, Stand By.

"The sale is part of SAS' process to divest and create a more flexible structure," said SAS press officer Trine Kromann-Mikkelsen.

Headquartered in the Paris suburb of Issy-les-Moulineaux, Sodexo has 380,000 employees worldwide. It bought a small cleaning company AGS at Copenhagen Airport in 2001. Endit
