Et ceci, partout où nous sommes et où nous opérons avec des partenaires. Notre action est donc conditionnée par ce besoin de poursuivre une qualité de service vis-à-vis de notre clientèle, qui devient progressivement globale”. C’est ce que nous ont déclaré Khoo Teng Chye, président du directoire du groupe PSA Corp Ltd et Goon Kok Loon, vice-président et président de la division affaires internationales du groupe singapourien, qui prendra prochainement le contrôle de l’entité fusionnée HesseNoord Natie, lors d’une entrevue qui s’inscrivait dans le cadre d’une tournée de prise de contact visuel avec leurs futurs intérêts à Zeebrugge (visité le 2 avril dernier) et mardi dernier à Anvers.

  • Synchrony Logistique placé en redressement judiciaire
    Le groupe de transport et de logistique Synchrony Logistique a été placé en redressement judiciaire lundi par le Tribunal de Commerce de Villefranche-sur-Saône. Celui-ci a ouvert une période d’observation de six mois. La société - qui est cotée en bourse sur le deuxième marché - dit qu’elle compte se redresser en 2001 et déclare que sa mise en redressement judiciaire est un accident de parcours. Il n’empêche qu’elle se traîne depuis plus de deux ans, entre autres parce qu’elle avait négligé les transports routiers, son activité de base, pour se consacrer à la logistique pure, “sans pneus”.
