Re-Think European Railfreight ! I was positively surprised by the new approach of ERMEWA SA to bring short-coupled 2-axle-wagons for parcel or pallet transport in operation... The use of articulated wagon units could contribute to more (cost-)efficient and competitive rail freight transport: A reduced number of bogies and couplers and, as a result less weight, less costs and an easy opportunity to be consistently digitized and electrified. The fact that 10% more cargo can be transported by reducing the empty space between two wagons (as Peter Reinshagen announces) is also an important factor in increasing efficiency. https://lnkd.in/eqZGnEwV

🚛⚡️ To achieve a world with zero emissions at zero cost, electrifying the transportation sector is essential. A recent study by PwC reveals that by 2030, over one in five trucks on German roads could be electric, and this figure could rise to an impressive 90 percent by 2040. This transformation demands immediate action and substantial investments to enhance the necessary charging infrastructure across Germany. 🔌 At The Mobility House Solutions, we are committed to supporting this transition with customized infrastructure solutions that lay the groundwork for a sustainable future. Together, we can redefine the mobility landscape of tomorrow! Check it out👇

Austrian Post, Österreichische Post AG, puts its first two #eTrucks into operation. The two vehicles commute #CO2free between the #logistics centre in #Vienna-Inzersdorf and Flughafen Wien - Vienna Airport to pick up or deliver international shipments. But it is not only the e-trucks that are #green and CO2-free on the road, the two companies are also working on the #decarbonization of tomorrow’s #mobility at the two end points of this “green corridor”, at the airport and in the logistics center. https://bit.ly/3XFtpEe

🚚 Until now, a physical consignment note with information about the sender, recipient and freight was required for each individual #transport.    On behalf of our customer LKW WALTER, we at Cloudflight have supported the development of a digital solution with which the most important #freight document for #international land transport at the full truck loads specialist LKW WALTER can be transferred to a completely digital process landscape. Each #eCMR is clearly digitally linked to the respective LKW WALTER transport and trailer.    The new solution not only #leverages great efficiency potential in transport processing and strengthens LKW WALTER's digital pioneering role.  By replacing around 1.5 million paper documents, it is also a key innovation in the direction of sustainability in logistics 💡 .  Learn more here:  https://lnkd.in/dEX95bip #DigitalTransformation #Sustainability #Solution

Miebach Consulting/DVZ Logistics Outsourcing Study 2023   Part 10: Outsourcing grows ever more slowly - now also abroad   A significant reduction in the positive prevailing mood can be seen among both German shippers and service providers. The trend from 1998 to 2014, with a continuous decrease in the proportion of those who predicted an increasing logistics outsourcing trend (1998: 66%, 2014: 53%), seemed to be broken in 2017, when an increasing value of 62% could be noted again. This short-term recovery could not be confirmed in 2020: The rate of those expecting a further increase in logistics outsourcing fell to 48%, and thus below the 50% mark for the first time. In the current study, this figure is now 49% and thus still below the 50% mark. This development can be seen both among service providers and shippers. In the other regions considered here, the mood continues to cool. Among shippers in LATAM, the rate of those expecting further growth falls from 71% to 64%, and in the rest of Europe from 77% to 60%. The corresponding rates among service providers are 80% in LATAM and 50% in the rest of Europe.   With this short article our series regarding the 2023 Logistics Outsourcing Study ends. We hope you did enjoy and stay curious for the next logistics discussions! Outlook: We will conduct a European Chemical Logistics Study during the next months and start presenting the results here in Linkedin most probably in Q4/2024.

🇩🇪 I’m heading to CEVA Logistics Germany this week 🇩🇪 Looking forward to meeting the team on some of our Aerospace and E-Commerce Fashion sites as our strategy accelerates. Visiting the north and the two largest cities of the world’s 3rd largest economy. Interessante Fakten bitte Alex? Leise bitte. 👥 The German population will peak in 2025 at 85m. By 2050 it will drop below 80m. This pattern of peak and slight decline is predicted across most of Europe. ⚡️🚘 Germany is a fascinating case study around sustainable energy transition. Its biggest Exports are Cars and biggest Import is Natural Gas (a fossil fuel). It has taken steps to catch up with the rest of Europe in recent years but it’s a contentious issue. 🛡️ Defence spending is rapidly increasing due to a change in foreign policy. In 2025 it will be the 2nd largest NATO country in terms of defence spending at c$97bn. This will be above the 2% NATO target for the first time in over 30 years. Another contentious issue that will impact 2025 elections and probably increase the populist vote. 🏭 Hamburg metropolitan area has a population of 5m and boasts the only UNESCO Heritage Warehouses at the Speicherstadt. 📈 The 6m inhabitants of Berlin enjoy economic performance that is significantly higher than the national average. Growth being over double the rest of the country. Jannik Mindermann Krzysztof Karelus

It is projects like this that make me optimistic. Especially in times of geopolitical crises and the misconception that #protectionism and additional #tariffs will safeguard jobs. In the end, it always comes down to strengthening global #supplychains. And that is what we are doing at DACHSER, for example, with our new Container Freight Station in Waddinxveen near #Rotterdam. In our own warehouse, we consolidate groupage shipments from the #Netherlands, #Belgium, large parts of #France and #Germany as well as #Switzerland and, in some cases, #Austria and #EmergingEurope, and ship them bundled by sea freight via the port of Rotterdam to destinations all over the world. It's all about managing the consolidation processes in our own facility independently of third parties and thus control a crucial part of the supply chain. At the same time, Waddinxveen is connected to our land transport network via the local European Logistics branch with closely timed transports. Nothing will change in this #supplychain. Managing it properly is the real game changer. https://lnkd.in/dzNEswR4

🚚 AsstrA-Associated Traffic AG keeps an eye on the road transportation market and is dedicated to delivering reliable and efficient road freight solutions. Here are the main highlights for the first quarter in the FTL Market Update: 📌 Economic Situation and business activity. The GDP remained stable in the euro area and the EU during the fourth quarter of 2023. Inflation in the euro area fell by 2.4% in February 2024. EU exports increased by 0.5%, while imports decreased by 6.2%. These indicators indicate a positive trend for the overall economic situation. The barometer index for business activity stands at 100.6, indicating a recovering business environment. However, geopolitical tensions and regional conflicts pose a risk to the upward momentum in trade. Merchandise trade is expected to gradually recover in early 2024. 📌 Trade Dynamics. Cargo transportation and trade between the EU and RU, UA, BY, and KZ countries remained stable in late 2023. However, changes in trends are possible based on the results of the first quarter of 2024. Increased trade opportunities with Uzbekistan are likely to emerge. 📌 Fuel Prices. Fuel prices remain volatile, influenced by factors such as oil prices, demand levels, and geopolitical factors. According to Reuters polls, the price of Brent oil is likely to rise by the end of the year, along with increased demand. 📌 Demand and Capacity. With subdued consumer sentiment and ongoing uncertainties, a significant economic recovery is not expected this year. However, moderate economic growth is anticipated in the second half of the year, supported by falling inflation rates and improving global trade. As a result, road freight volumes are not expected to increase until the second half of the year, while freight rates will remain at a high level. Looking ahead, we anticipate resilience in the #roadfreight market over the next two years, with global economic growth projected at around 2-3% annually. A gradual economic recovery towards the end of 2024 should support trade in goods and boost the demand for logistics services. #marketpulse #FTL #logistics #roadtransport #AsstrAteam #logisticsprovider #globallogistics #transportation

𝟮𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗚𝗢-𝗯𝗼𝘅 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮: 𝗔 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗦𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗚 🚚   January 1st, 2004 at 0:00 marked the official start for toll boxes in Austria. After only 15 minutes the first customer already drove through a toll station with his new toll box. Welcoming the first customer with his toll box so quickly was only possible because of the good cooperation between us and ASFINAG. 🤝   After it was decided that GO toll will be introduced in addition to the existing route toll and vignettes, the first talks with ASFINAG on a partnership for the introduction of toll boxes began in 2002. Today, we are happy to share a path of steady development and continuously improving offers to our customers for more than 30 years already.     ℹ Funfact: First 120.00 toll boxes were planned for the start in 2004. Quickly it was decided to raise the number of toll boxes first to 200.000 boxes and finally to 400.000 boxes to be prepared for the incoming requests.   #YouDriveWeCare #Mobility #Toll #Austria #Partnership

Big news today for DB Schenker!! Deutsche Bahn has decided to sell the company to DSV. With DSV stepping in as the new owner, there’s a lot of excitement about the opportunities this could bring. More investment, bigger plans for growth, and the chance to make an even stronger impact in the logistics world. Both DSV and DB Schenker have been successful in their own right, and now the goal is to work together to become a global leader in freight and logistics. There’s a lot to be excited about. More resources, access to new markets, and the chance to innovate on a larger scale. But with every big change, there’s always the question of what challenges might come up. How will DB Schenker’s culture be affected? Could there be some bumps along the way as the two companies merge, or will it be smooth sailing with both sides getting stronger? What do you think? Is this move a big win for everyone involved, or are there some risks to watch out for? I’d love to hear your thoughts on the pros and cons of this deal from those at the forefront our industry!

Logistics expert Sven Rutkowsky from Kearney states that 2 billion Euros are expected to be invested in parcel locker networks across Europe during the next 5 years. Some other emerging Trends of Parcel Lockers: Increasing prevalence of DHL's yellow parcel lockers as a response to the industry’s challenges, including high fuel costs and insufficient delivery personnel. Cost Reductions: Parcel lockers could reduce delivery costs by up to 30%, significantly impacting the economics of the industry given the annual volume of over four billion package deliveries. Environmental Benefits: Reduced traffic from decreased home delivery attempts leads to lower carbon emissions, aligning with environmental sustainability goals. Consumer Acceptance: Younger demographics show a preference for parcel lockers due to advantages like 24/7 availability and quick access. Proximity (around 500 meters) significantly boosts user acceptance. Strategic Placement: The potential to utilize public spaces more efficiently as cities reduce private car usage, creating opportunities to place parcel lockers in accessible urban areas. Market Growth Potential: Expected increase in parcel locker installations, driven by both consumer demand and strategic partnerships with housing corporations and retailers. Future Projections: The market for parcel lockers is seen as robust, with a shift towards more widespread adoption and potential standardization across the industry, suggesting a sustainable growth trend.

Our driver trainees make sure the wheels keep rolling Henrie and Samuel, who are featured in the latest edition of the DACHSER magazine, are driver trainees at our Bremen logistics center. As you can read in our article (link below), they have everything it takes to become professional drivers: a lot of commitment, know-how, and a strong sense of responsibility. Being a driver is demanding, though: the working conditions can be tough and this important profession still doesn’t get the appreciation it deserves. Consequently, it can be a real challenge to get young people on board. And the shortage of drivers is already hitting our whole industry hard. In Germany alone, we’re already 70,000 drivers short, with an additional 20,000 vacancies appearing each year. Typically for #DACHSER, we decided to act early rather than complain. That’s why, ten years ago already, we started to train drivers ourselves in collaboration with our transport partners. The foundation of ‘DACHSER Service und Ausbildungs GmbH’, our very own training company, in 2014 marks the beginning of a remarkable success story. In ten years, we have grown into one of the leading training and further education companies for professional drivers in Germany. Every year, around 100 apprentices begin their journey with us.  Looking at the overall numbers, however, this is only a small step in the right direction. That’s why I urge everyone in our industry to unite in improving the training courses, the working conditions, and the overall attractiveness of the driving profession. We have to pull together because without our drivers, logistics will grind to a halt.
