  • PSA Corp contrôle désormais la Hesse Noord Natie à 80%
    On s’en doutait depuis quelque temps. Le transfert des titres de la Hesse Noord Natie intervenu hier l’a confirmé: le groupe PSA de Singapour a pris officiellement le contrôle de la société de manutention portuaire Hesse Noord Natie avec une très forte majorité, soit 80%. Rappelons que la valeur totale de l’entreprise avait été estimée à 630 mio. d’euros, soit 25,7 mia. de BEF, ce qui signifie que, compte tenu des filiales à participations, PSA Corp vient de procéder à un investissement de l’ordre de quelque 480 mio. d’euros, soit un peu plus de 19 mia. de BEF.

Via ce concept, Cobelfret veut poursuivre l’intégration verticale de ses services. Dans ce contexte, la navigation intérieure était le maillon manquant outre les propres terminaux déjà existants pour traiter les propres navires, les propres semi-remorques et containers pour charger les navires et finalement les propres camions et wagons ferroviaires pour assurer le transport de et vers les ports maritimes.
