  • Quand l'armement entend gérer la chaîne logistique et d'alimentation
    "Si les armements veulent rester compétitifs au 21e siècle, ils devront se diversifier de cette fonction qui consiste à être fournisseurs de transport de commodités et s'engager dans le management de la chaîne d'alimentation. Ce dernier aspect sera la règle du jeu". Jim Poon managing director de l'armement OOCL pour l'Asie, qui s'exprimait lors d'une manifestation qui s'est tenue récemment à Hong-kong, a développé ses vues sur l'avenir qu'il entrevoit pour les grands armements containérisés.
  • UPS acquiert la division logistique de Rollins Truck Leasing

Les deux groupes deviendront, chacun dans leur secteur, partenaires privilégiés. Les analystes américains estiment que c'est le début d'une offensive visant à contrer la Deutsche Post dans sa stratégie d'expansion. D'autres acquisitions majeures par UPS seraient à prévoir.

Lors d'une présentation à Bruxelles dans le cadre de la Brussels Travel Fair, le nouveau directeur Alain Berquez a annoncé une intensification des relations avec la Belgique, qui représente déjà environ un cinquième des passagers.
