  • Andrea Merzario est un candidat pour le cabotage maritime, mais...
    “Nous sommes en faveur du cabotage maritime. Nous y croyons fermement. Malheureusement, au stade actuel des choses, la clientèle n’est guère sensibilisée et n’y croit pas. Ce qui est important c’est de provoquer un changement de mentalité, car la connexion route/navire offre des avantages certains”...

  • Delhaize teste un nouveau système écologique de réfrigération

A l’achat et à l’équipement, ce système produit par Thermoking est plus cher, mais à l’usage, le coût final est moindre. C’est en tout cas ce que l’expérience devra vérifier. Elle se poursuivra jusqu’à la fin de l’année. Si elle est concluante, une trentaine de nouvelles unités pourraient être achetées en 2003.

Les EU peuvent jouer à ce niveau un rôle qui leur revient en tant que superpuissance, pense-t-il.
