  • Swisscargo satisfait des résultats de 1999
    Swisscargo a sensiblement augmenté sa productivité au cours de l'année dernière et ce malgré les turbulences qui ont secoué le secteur du fret aérien. Ainsi, le nombre de tonnes-kilomètres a augmenté de 2%, tandis que le coefficient de chargement a progressé de 7%. La division de fret aérien de SAirGroup a entamé l'exercice 2000 par une offensive sur le marché italien.
  • "La rémunération de l'agent maritime doit être revue d'urgence"
    "Malgré une rentabilité très basse - 2% par an entre 1993 et 1998, période pendant laquelle la bourse américaine a progressé de 20% chaque année - on continue à investir dans le secteur maritime. Si l'on peut en croire les chiffres, les vingt-cinq plus grands armements ont commandé de nouveaux navires pour renforcer leurs flottes de 20%... Dès lors, on peut se poser des questions sur l'attitude déraisonnable de certaines organisations de chargeurs, qui s'opposent aux initiatives des services de ligne maritimes. A mon avis, l'industrie est le secteur qui a le plus profité de la réduction des coûts dans le secteur de transport."
  • TPG reprend un prestataire de services de Renault

Entre-temps, la Commission européenne a entamée une enquête dans le but de vérifier si TPG a oui ou non abusé de sa position de monopole sur le marché du courier.
