About these figures

The operating statistics cover the 12 months to 11 September 2026 and are aggregated from Unicore's shipment system. They are counts only: no customer names, prices or margin data are published here.

Daily and weekly averages are calculated over calendar days rather than working days, so the real working-day load is higher.

Two country counts appear on this site and they measure different things. The 50 here is the number of countries our customers are themselves registered in. The 110+ quoted elsewhere is destination reach through our agent network. The smaller number does not correct the larger one.

The registration details can be checked in the Latvian company register, and the IATA status in the IATA OneSource station profile. Links sit next to the relevant table rows.
