L’objectif de l’entreprise est de s’inscrire dans la logistique de la “supply chain” en optimalisant le conditionnement de la marchandise, c’est-à-dire son emballage, en tenant compte du rapport poids/volume, ce qui permet d’accompagner des flux de trafics, voire de les générer.

Dans un communiqué, Transport et Logistique de France (TLF) s’empresse de rappeler aux pouvoirs publics l’engagement qu’ils ont pris de compenser intégralement cette hausse des coûts au titre du carburant professionnel. Le gouvernement Jospin avait fait une promesse en ce sens dans le cadre des accords conclus à l’automne dernier après les actions des transporteurs routiers contre les fortes hausses du prix du gazole en 2000.
