Leading German freight transport company Schenker has expanded its specialised night expressservices. For standard parcel services, the Deutsche Bahn subsidiary cooperates with UPS.
The specialist express service is targeted at customers with urgent items such as spare partsthat have to be delivered before the start of the working day. Automotive workshops and repaircentres are a key customer group.
“Workshops can now repair vehicles more quickly, production systems can be brought back intooperation earlier, and expensive storage of spare parts is no longer necessary,” commented AloysWinn, Schenker Germany board member and responsible for overland transport.
The service is backed up by an internet-based IT system that enables customers to track andtrace items. Deliveries are available throughout Germany as well as to destinations in Benelux,Denmark, Austria and Switzerland.
