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 air freight, 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. Turnover is $10.1 billion for air and sea forwarding. Contract logistics is 2.4 billion. Schenker’s trucking operations in Europe have 23,000 employees/drivers and $8.6 billion in revenue. Railon has $5.8 billion in revenue and 29,000 employees. Intermodal operations are extensive.
