Singapore-based SATS announced that its subsidiary TFK Corporation (SATS TFK) has secured a three-year inflight catering contract from Turkish Airlines. The contract, which commenced at the start of October 2025, marks a significant milestone for SATS Food Solutions’ business in Japan and reflects the company’s expanding relationship with one of Europe’s premier carriers.
Under the agreement, SATS TFK will provide daily inflight meal services for Turkish Airlines’ flights from Narita International Airport-Istanbul (NRT-IST) and Tokyo Haneda Airport-Istanbul (HND-IST), with all meals prepared to halal standards in SATS TFK’s certified facilities.
Stanley Goh, CEO of SATS Food Solutions, said: “We are honoured by the trust Turkish Airlines has placed in our team’s capabilities. Securing this landmark contract with Turkish Airlines is a testament to SATS TFK’s operational excellence and our ability to deliver a wide variety of high-quality inflight meals of authentic Asian and international cuisines, safely, consistently and at scale, while meeting the exacting standards of international carriers. This partnership strengthens our position in the Japanese market and demonstrates how our food solutions business continues to win the confidence of leading global airlines.”
SATS TFK, one of Japan’s largest inflight caterers with a history dating back to 1959, operates production facilities at both Haneda and Narita airports that serve Tokyo, Japan’s capital city. The company serves more than a million meals monthly to 50 international and domestic airlines, leveraging SATS’ global culinary expertise and regional knowledge to create authentic dining experiences.
As part of the SATS network, SATS TFK benefits from the group’s extensive food production capabilities across Asia and its track record as a seven-time consecutive recipient of the Pax International Airline Caterer of the Year award for Asia. The company’s ability to produce halal-certified meals at scale, combined with its commitment to food safety and quality, positions it well to serve Turkish Airlines’ discerning guests on their routes connecting Japan with global destinations.
