Analytiqa: Logistics Bulletin: Friday 02nd February

Written by Mark O'Bornick
Monday, 05 February 2007
This week's Logistics Bulletin reports on a number of full year financial results, global co-operation and contract wins. Panalpina and the NYK Group have agreed to cooperate both in Japan and internationally. According to the agreement, the NYK subsidiary Yusen Air & Sea Service (YAS) will become Panalpina's agent in Japan, whilst Panalpina will represent YAS' interests in various countries in addition to its existing network. Among contract wins announced this week were awards to Wincanton, Kuehne + Nagel and Penske. The latter sees Ford Motor Company contract Penske to provide material planning and handling services at its Southampton, UK facility that produces approximately 80,000 Ford Transit vans annually. Elsewhere this week, IATA has reported that cargo growth rates increased from 3.2% in 2005, to 4.6% in 2006, though they remain below the historical growth trend of 5.6%. Staying with freight news, DHL has launched the DHL Domestic Airfreight service in China. DHL Global Forwarding is the first international forwarder to obtain the CATA (China Air Transport Association) domestic air freight license, allowing them to operate within 17 Chinese cities. This is a key milestone for both the Company and the domestic logistics market, previously served only by Chinese state-owned and local companies. Urban Transport Policy in Europe: Meeting City Demands for Green Logistics </br> </br> New Research from Analytiqa </br> Urban Transport Policy in Europe: Meeting City Demands for Green Logistics takes an in-depth look at the current initiatives and legislation currently being planned and implemented across twenty cities in twelve European countries across both West and Eastern Europe. </br> The issues addressed are those that will have the greatest impact on providers working within the express, logistics or supply chain arena. It is critical that hauliers, courier and express, logistics and distribution companies across all sectors understand and account for changes in their operational environment. </br> This report will assist decision makers within these organisations to ensure correct future investment into vehicles, resources, strategies and services that are not only compliant with future environmental legislation (Euro 4, Euro IV, Euro 5, Euro V, etc) and developments, but more importantly, are considered and hence able to take full advantage of some of the opportunities the future, 'greener', market will provide. </br> Click http://www.analytiqa.com/reports.aspx?ReportId=252 for more information. </br> </br> Panalpina and NYK agree global cooperation </br> 02 February 2007 - The agreement will provide new business opportunities for both parties </br> Panalpina and the NYK Group have agreed to cooperate both in Japan and internationally. According to the agreement, the NYK subsidiary Yusen Air & Sea Service (YAS) will become Panalpina’s agent in Japan, whilst Panalpina will represent YAS’ interests in various countries in addition to its existing network. </br> The agreement (which is expected to become effective during the second quarter of 2007) will provide new business opportunities for both parties. The agency agreement with Yusen Air & Sea Service will allow Panalpina to consolidate all of its service offerings, purchasing and domestic activities in Japan. At the same time, YAS will gain access to Panalpina’s extensive network and in-depth market knowledge. Thus both parties will strengthen their respective networks and procurement capabilities, with mutual benefits on a global basis. </br> As part of the agreement, Panalpina will appoint YAS as its agent for air and ocean freight business in Japan. YAS in turn assigns Panalpina to be its representative in several countries across Latin America, Africa and the Middle East. The collaboration creates global advantages for both parties in their respective markets, including mutually beneficial co-loading opportunities. </br> Elsewhere this week: </br> </br> Norbert Dentressangle see pick up in organic growth http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2205 </br> International operations boost performance at UPS http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2206 </br> YRC Worldwide delivers 13.5% increase in operating revenue http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2207 </br> CH Robinson reports 19.8% increase in Q4 Truck transportation gross profits http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2208 </br> JB Hunt performance boosted by intermodal services http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2209 </br> ARAMEX 2006 profits climb 28.0% as revenues grow by 59.0% http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2210 </br> Q4 revenues down 7.0% at Con-way http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2211 </br> Stonepath continues restructuring towards profitability http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2212 </br> Ford Motor Company Selects Penske as Logistics Provider for UK Facility http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2213 </br> Kuehne + Nagel manages textile logistics for online fashion store http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2214 </br> Wincanton working with Volkswagen Logistics http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2215 </br> Kuehne + Nagel provides warehousing for ICI Paints Deco http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2216 </br> IATA Report steady, more profitable growth in 2006 http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2217 DHL launches domestic air freight service in China http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2218 </br> Azkar invests €5.5 million in new logistics hub http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2219 </br> Arcese updates UK fleet operations http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2220 </br> ProLogis Leases 69,680 m2 DC in New Jersey to LG Electronics http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2223 </br> Whirlpool signs up for green logistics http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2221 </br> EGL names new President of Europe, Middle East and Africa Region http://www.analytiqa.com/newsitem.aspx?articleid=2222 </br> Receive Analytiqa's daily logistics news by RSS.
