Edmonton airport breaks ground on 50,000-sq-ft airside cargo facility

Edmonton International Airport and Terracap Management have started construction of a 50,000-square-foot airside cargo facility next to Apron VIII, tied to the airport's wider cargo hub development.

Edmonton International Airport and Terracap Management have broken ground on a 50,000-square-foot airside cargo facility next to Apron VIII. Terracap will develop, own and manage the building, which is intended for time-sensitive cargo such as e-commerce shipments, perishables, pharmaceuticals and aviation parts.

The project is private investment tied to the airport's wider International Cargo Hub. The Government of Canada has committed $118 million through the National Trade Corridors Fund for the hub and associated infrastructure, which spans more than 2,000 acres of serviced development land.

Terracap already operates about 100,000 square feet of airside cargo space at YEG, fully leased to Air Canada, Cargojet, DHL and Purolator. The company described the new building as its third air cargo distribution facility at the airport.
