Frankfurt Cargo Services (FCS), the largest independent cargo handler at Frankfurt Airport, has appointed Federico Mosqueira as its new director of operations.

He took on the role from January 1, 2024. 

In the announcement, FCS said Mosqueira succeeds Christoph Cyranek, who took over the position from Markus Schneefuss on an interim basis in August 2023.

"Federico Mosqueira is an absolute industry expert, has an excellent network and is already familiar with the Frankfurt location. He is an ideal fit for FCS, both professionally and personally, and we are convinced that he will quickly help us significantly in mastering the challenges that are currently driving the cargo industry," said Claus Wagner, managing director of Frankfurt Cargo Services.

Mosqueira has more than 20 years of experience in the operational management of companies in the air cargo and supply chain industry.

He previously worked for LATAM Airlines in various functions (Mexico, Central America and USA) and for Qatar Airways as Manager of Cargo Network Operations based in Doha.

Most recently, Mosqueira worked for Amazon, where he was a key player in launching Amazon AIR in Europe.

"FCS is a big name in our industry. I am very much looking forward to this new professional challenge, and I appreciate the trust FCS has in me," Mosqueira said.
