  • 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
    TPG, c'est-à-dire la Poste néerlandaise, a pris une participation majoritaire dans l'entreprise logistique française Mendy Développement. TPG étend de la sorte ses activités logistiques dans le secteur automotive vers la France, l'Espagne et le Portugal. 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.
  • Gilis-Driesen s'étend dans la logistique du froid vers l'Europe de l'Est
    Gilis East Logistic System (GELS), une division créée il y a près de deux ans par Gilis-Driesen à Turnhout, a récemment mis en service un entrepôt frigorifique pour ses trafics vers l'Europe de l'Est. Il sert essentiellement au stockage temporaire de produits pharmaceutiques et alimentaires. Par ailleurs, une autre division de ce groupe, Radar, vient d'acquérir un véhicule léger pour le transport rapide de produits sous température dirigée, notamment, là aussi, vers l'Europe de l'Est.
