  • Le groupe CMB développe sa palette de services logistiques avec Logiflow
    Une nouvelle filiale a été créée tout récemment au sein du groupe CMB sous le nom de Logiflow. Le groupe belge est ainsi en mesure d’élargir considérablement sa palette de services dans le secteur de la logistique, puisque Logiflow vient en complément de la société soeur Hessenatie Logistics, qui est davantage axée sur les interventions physiques qu’implique la gestion de la “supply chain”. Logiflow entend pour sa part se profiler en tant que “fourth party logistics provider”, ce qui implique une multitude de prestations, allant de la consultance/consei à la gestion de ladite chaîne d’approvisionnement, en passant par l’élaboration des solutions - éventuellement sur mesure - à appliquer tout au long de ses rouages.
  • L’offre combinée rail/route est victime d’un positionnement irréaliste
    Sous la pression de Bruxelles, la France pourrait être conduite à modifier sa politique d’aides au combiné rail/route (LL du 7/8). Au-delà de cette éventualité, le cas français conduit certains observateurs à considérer que le positionnement actuel de l’offre rail/route n’est sans doute pas le plus pertinent face aux réalités du terrain. Autrement dit, il pourrait être plus efficace de ne plus placer systématiquement ce mode d’acheminement en concurrence avec le 100% route. Mieux vaudrait privilégier la régularité et la fiabilité plutôt que d’afficher des délais qui, dans le contexte actuel, se révèlent impossibles à tenir. Analyse.
  • AP Møller annonce un résultat semestriel en hausse
    Le groupe danois AP Møller a réalisé à l’issue du premier semestre une belle performance, toutefois comme c’est la tradition de la maison, les chiffres publiés ne permettent guère de se faire une idée sur la prestation réelle de la partie Liner. Tout au plus une petite phrase du rapport signale que les services containérisés ont généré un résultat qui est au niveau de celui de l’année précédente... Ceci étant le CA global des quatre entités du groupe a atteint 46,45 mia. de DKK, contre 38,11 mia. à la fin juin 2.000 et le bénéfice après ajustements, éléments spéciaux et taxes supposées de 3,05 mia. de DKK (2,63 mia.).
  • Euro Nordic Logistics acquiert 30% d’Antwerp Logistx
    L’entreprise rotterdamoise Euro Nordic Logistics a pris une participation de 30% dans le logisticien anversois Logistx, qui a été créé en avril dernier à peine. Ce dernier est actif dans l’expédition maritime, l’entreposage et la distribution, les formalités douanières et en tant qu’agence maritime. Le rapprochement entre les deux entreprises est entre autres inspiré par le fait qu’elles se consacrent toutes deux aux flux de marchandises du groupe non-ferreux norvégien Elkem, l’une à Rotterdam et l’autre à Anvers.
