Sats Group is set to enhance its ground operations and cargo handling infrastructure at its Singapore hub located at Changi Airport. The investment will cost a total of $250 million, with $150 million going towards the renewal and expansion of the group’s Singapore Hub ground support equipment (GSE) fleet over the next five years until 2029, while $100 million will be spent on bolstering cargo operations across air freight terminals from 2025 to 2026.

Sats Singapore Hub CEO Henry Low says the revamp is designed to support the group in handling cargo growth between now and the mid-2030s, with all upgrades targeted at the existing passenger terminals, numbered one to four, and air freight terminals, numbered one to six.

“There will be a future engagement to announce our next set of investments that will come in for Terminal 5 (T5), which we are in close collaboration with Changi Airport Group as well as with the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, in order to get ready and to redesign our operations for the future,” says Low. He adds: “The equipment sets and the investments we are making are really for the current set of airport infrastructure.”
