Armstrong & Associates’ Evaluation:
|
Schenker made a significant move to expand its previously limited
U.S.
presence by acquiring BAX Global in 2006. The combination
significantly expanded Schenker’s Asia-Pacific and North American
capabilities. Together Schenker and BAX are now the No. 1 source for
European land transportation, No. 2 for global airfreight, No. 3 for
global ocean freight, No. 6 for global contract logistics and No. 3
for North American integrated heavy freight. Schenker is a part of
DB Logistics, the Transportation and Logistics Division of Deutsche
Bahn AG.
