Global trends
Two opposing forces are always at play in a company (purchasing, production, sales): centralization creating opportunities for economies of scale and standardization on the one hand, and decentralization to promote close client relationships, agility, and singularity. The transport industry is no stranger to these questions.
Technology & Data
Electronic consignment notes, also called “e-CMR”, are used in more and more countries. This emerging tool lowers costs and speeds up the billing and administrative aspects of shipping.
Transport & Logistics mode
Although trucking will remain a widely used mean for shipping goods in Europe, the industry will have to lower its carbon footprint by 2030. The transition will be made possible by a broad range of energy solutions, from diesel fuel all the way to hydrogen fuel cells.
