HiSERV is a German GSE supplier offering a range of rental options, plus other services such as fleet management and pooling options, maintenance and consultancy to support its leased GSE equipment. Established as recently as December 2017, it has grown quickly over its first year of operations
HiSERV, based out of Berlin and Frankfurt (Main) in Germany, offers its customers various leasing options across the full spectrum of GSE, ranging from non-motorised towbars right up to sophisticated de-icers.
Its customer base takes in the big handlers such as Zurich, Switzerland-headquartered Swissport; Zaventem, Belgium-headquartered Aviapartner; and Frankfurt, Germany-headquartered WISAG. It has also sold directly to a number of airport operators across Germany and in Austria and Denmark.
In fact it, has equipment deployed at all the big German airports, including but not limited to Frankfurt, Berlin, Stuttgart, Leipzig-Halle, Düsseldorf, Hamburg and Cologne-Bonn, and has also leased equipment into Denmark’s Copenhagen Airport, for example, as well as Vienna and Luxembourg airports.
HiSERV’s business has grown extremely quickly since its establishment late last year; in fact, it now manages a fleet of more than 4,000 pieces of GSE now in use at various Western European gateways.
And that is to be the company’s focus going forward into 2019, informs Rubesh Samuel, HiSERV’s Frankfurt-based manager business development and sales. He and his colleagues are looking to drive more business across Western Europe and even further afield – globally, indeed, wherever required by the company’s customers.
Key accounts will be particularly important to continued rapid growth – working with the big handlers such as those named above that order in bulk to serve their geographically diverse networks can be particularly rewarding for a supplier such as HiSERV.
The company will also continue to work very closely with the GSE manufacturers whose equipment it leases, Samuel confirms. These include such luminaries of the GSE manufacturing world as TREPEL Airport Equipment, MULAG, Goldhofer, TiPS and many others.
High quality at a reasonable price
HiSERV seeks to provide “premium quality and high flexibility at a fair price”, Samuel says. Its GSE is sourced from “premium manufacturers”, with its rental solutions tailored to meet customer needs, whether they be for dry rental, full service rental, short- or long-term rental. Its GSE can also be rented at a fixed price or by operating hour.
In addition, HiSERV offers GSE tracking systems to allow operators to optimise the value of their rented GSE.
Currently managing more than 4,000 GSE units, HiSERV is clearly on the move; and it is looking for even more business.
