Fraport AG: privatepartnership with Russian Pulkovo Airport. Fraport AG’s executive board chairman Dr. Stefan Schulte signed the public-privatepartnership agreement for developing, reconstructing and operating St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport, the fourth largest airport in Russia.
“Fraport and its partners in the Northern Capital Gateway consortium can be proud of winning the concession bid and to be soon taking over operation of Pulkovo Airport in April 2010,” declared Schulte at the contract signing.
“With Fraport, the City of St. Petersburg has found a partner that is fully dedicated to the project. We intend to make the development of Pulkovo a model project for the Russian aviation industry and for us as an airport manager.”
Using its expertise, Fraport intends to make Pulkovo Airport the main transportation hub for one of Russia’s most popular tourist regions and to expand and operate it in a steadily growing market.
