Singapore-based ground handling services firm SATS Ltd (SATS.SI) is acquiring Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) for 1.19 billion euros ($1.14 billion) in cash, making the combined group the world’s biggest global air cargo handler, the companies said on Wednesday.

“This is a transformational opportunity for SATS and our proposed acquisition of WFS will create a global leader that can become the go-to provider of mission critical aviation services,” Kerry Mok, SATS’ CEO, said in a statement.

SATS is buying WFS from an affiliate of U.S. private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management.
