Traffic Worldweb site
  • Deutsche Post AG intends to acquire Danzas Holding AG, Europe's fourth-largest freight company, for $1.1 billion in cash in a bid to become Europe's dominant transportation and logistics provider. The acquisition comes as the European Union prepares for postal deregulation in 2003. Danzas shares rose by 33 percent to 580 francs following the announcement. The tender offer is expected to commence in mid-January and to remain open until mid-February 1999.
  • Hide, duck, bob and weave - you can't avoid a conclusion that 1998 was custom-designed for Bud Shuster and his six-year, $217 billion highway and mass transit spending bill signed into law as the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century. Shuster now is determined to build a protective firewall around the Airport and Airway Trust Fund. Shuster also could set the House and Senate agenda in the 106th Congress on Surface Transportation Board reauthorization and captive-shipper initiatives to trim railroad market power. The new Congress also must concern itself with funding port dredging and reconstructing dozens of aging inland waterway locks. And don't be surprised to see the new Congress debating a thaw in the truck size and weight freeze.
  • For those in the logistics arena, 1998 came in with bang and went out with a blast with plenty of action in between. The bang came when Federal Express Corp. made final its acquisition of Caliber System to form FDX Corp., a $15 billion global logistics company. During the year companies were relying less on an array of different products to turn a profit and more on the speed and efficiency with which they could get them to markets around the world. Shippers continued to cite information technology, broader services and wider geographic coverage as their top priorities.
  • Nonunion carriers enjoyed a banner year in trucking, compared with their unionized counterparts. The exception was Teamsters-covered United Parcel Service, which rebounded from last year's strike by breaking its all-time annual net profit in the first nine months of 1998. A month-by-month breakdown of the year that was in trucking charts the dynamic trucking industry in 1998.
  • For railroads and their customers, 1998 was the year to get together and talk. The increased dialogue between the railroads and their customers was initiated by a host of service problems that actually began in 1997. Outreach programs sponsored by the Association of American Railroads acted as a release valve for frustrated customers. From a Wall Street perspective, management still must prove that they're capable of handling the continuing industry consolidation before financial faith in the industry is restored.
  • Canadian transportation companies will be glad to put 1998 behind them if 1999 shapes up to be any less trying than the last 12 months. Unfortunately the new year promises at least as many headaches for carriers and shippers. The Asian flu and Russia's economic woes have unsettled world trading patterns. The economic malaise has spread into Latin America and all of this has led to problems for Canada's export-import dependent economy. On top of the trade issues are forecasts of poorer economic performance in 1999.
  • By far the biggest ocean shipping story of 1998 was the passage of maritime deregulation legislation, although reregulation would be a much more accurate term. It's been a long, twisted journey for the deregulation effort and there's been quite a bit of difference between what was initially proposed about three years ago and what's going to be law come spring. The important piece of the regulation, as far as some big shippers are concerned, is that there can be private, secret deals that span all of the trade lanes. How this works out for smaller shippers and shipping lines remains to be seen.
  • Software companies and third-party logistics firms are taking Ben Franklin's sage advice - they are all trying to "hang together" to win the race to offer fully integrated supply-chain solutions. 1998 was the year for supply-chain mergers and partnerships. There were some other big issues too: the Internet and electronic commerce, the millennium bug and globalization stole some of the limelight. Analysts see many of the trends of 1998 continuing on in 1999 and beyond, with visibility through the supply chain remaining a driving factor.
  • Being high-tech and on the cutting edge is hip, but successful carriers in today's freight market also are predictable. That's why air carriers are projected to increase their share of the $65 billion U.S. time-definite transportation market next year, according to a study released by the Colography Group Inc. The ability to specify a transit time and meet that commitment is what separates winners from losers in today's freight markets, argued Ted Scherck, president of the research group.
