  • Chronopost International Belgique et TAT Express Benelux fusionnent
    Les sociétés belges des groupes Chronopost International et TAT Express ont fusionné. Elles appartiennent toutes deux à La Poste française, mais étaient administrativement et opérationnellement séparées. Leur fusion permet à Chronopost Belgique d’élargir sensiblement sa palette de services, entre autres en faisant passer la limite de poids maximale de 30 à 70 kg et en pouvant effectuer désormais des livraisons de nuit. Une troisième activité de La Poste en Belgique, DPD Belgium, n’est pas concernée par le rapprochement et demeure indépendante. C’est ce qui a été annoncé à l’occasion de l’inauguration du nouveau centre adminsitratif et opérationnel de Chronopost Internatioal à Zaventem, près de Bruxelles.
  • J. Pellens (AGHA): “la distorsion entre ports risque d’être renforcée”
    La plupart des premiers commentaires au sujet du résultat de la dernière réunion des ministres des Transports de l’UE à Luxembourg, en ce qui concerne le projet de directive sur le “Port Package”, semblent positifs, alors qu’en y regardant de plus près, on a l’impression que les stratèges de l’UE on placé une bombe à retardement sous la scène portuaire européenne. D’un côté, on laisse aux Etats le soin de maintenir ou non leurs propres législations en matière sociale et de travail. D’un autre côté, on considère que le “self handling” est un droit normal. Si ce projet de texte est finalement adopté dans le cadre d’un consensus entre le Conseil des ministres et le parlement européen, il y aura non seulement une contradiction avec le but initialement recherché, celui d’un champ d’action commun à tous les ports, mais il y a là le risque quasi certain d’assister à une déstabilisation du marché avec toutes les conséquences que cela peut impliquer.
  • Graveleau lance son pôle “euronational”
    Pour le groupe français Graveleau, l’année 2002 est placée plus que jamais sous le signe de l’Europe. Désormais contrôlée par le groupe allemand Dachser, la société s’est en effet fixé comme objectif de valoriser les synergies de l’alliance entre Graveleau et Dachser. Cela doit leur permettre de concrétiser deux ambitions complémentaires: être un acteur de premier rang sur le marché européen et acquérir une position de leader sur l’axe France/Allemagne dans les deux sens. Cette stratégie impose des évolutions de l’organisation et s’appuie sur les excellents résultats enregistrés au titre de l’exercice 2001.
  • Deutsche Post se voit imposer une amende de 572 mio. d’EUR
    Après une étude approfondie du dossier, la Commission européenne a décidé hier que Deutsche Post AG devait rembourser un montant de 572 millions d’EUR pour abus d’aide publique. Ce montant était destiné à soutenir la prestation de services publics, mais DP a utilisé les fonds, selon la Commission, pour mener une politique tarifaire agressive afin d’évincer du marché ses rivaux du secteur privé actifs dans la distribution de colis. Les faits se seraient produits entre 1994 et 1998. DP dément les faits et prétend au contraire avoir versé des milliards aux caisses de l’Etat depuis 1996.
