The Market Study

The market analysis confirmed the potential for integrators, and in this case essentially TNT for Liege, and tested the sensitivity of new users, essentially from the road haulage industry, to this innovating concept.

In the initial approach, it is clear that the traffic will mainly be based on air freight. The market study conducted at Liege however indicates that the road haulage sector shows an interest in high-added-value freight transport requiring a high safety level.

It also demonstrated the relevancy of direct routes between London - Liege - Germany, Amsterdam - Liege - Germany, or even Amsterdam or Germany - Liege - Lyon with future extensions to Italy or Spain, thus confirming that Liege is not intended to be a network terminal but rather an important point in a multi-branch network.
