The German logistics group . The decision, which was taken by the Management Board of Schenker's U.S. subsidiary, Inc. and the Board of DB Mobility Logistics leader, will involve, inter alia, the disposal of the fleet of aircraft of the U.S. branch and cut about 700 jobs mainly recruited among the employees who work part-time hub of the main North American company that is located in Toledo.
Under the plan, Schenker, Inc. focuses its activities on a smaller number of customers requiring transport services primarily in North America. The German group noted that the disposal of the fleet dedicated to the U.S. market, which represents less than 10% of the company in the Americas, will take place in the coming weeks.
"Because of the prolonged recession and rising fuel prices - said the CEO of Schenker, Inc., Heiner Murmann - our customers are increasingly pointing to the overland transport rather than to domestic air travel and are looking partner able to provide transportation management services rather than the performance of the carriage. " "We are very sorry - he continued - for the fact that there will be some layoffs as part of this reorganization. However we are working to re-employ the greatest number of employees in other branches of our business. "
