  • K Line entend diminuer l’importance du liner dans ses activités
    Tout récemment K Line annonçait certaines évolutions dans ses activités de lignes régulières, dont la principale est l’introduction d’un service pendulaire USA/Asie/Europe en compagnie de Yang Ming. Mais il y a plus. La stratégie que développe cet armement japonais consiste également à se diversifier davantage dans d’autres secteurs de manière à ce que son CA ne soit plus tellement tributaire du liner containérisé.

Cette dernière avait déposé plainte en avril 2000 auprès de la Commission européenne et les instances européennes lui ont donné entièrement raison. La Poste a qualifié les faits “de confusion consciemment créée entre l’échange de documents (marché libéral) et le trafic postal B2B (monopole)”. A l’heure de la mise sous presse, on ne savait pas encore si elle comptait aller en appel.
