Hupac Group Achieves 13% Traffic Growth

In 2019, the Swiss Hupac Group was able to increase its traffic volume by 13% compared to the previous year, thus surpassing the one million mark for the first time.

(Chiasso, February 19, 2020) In its core business of transalpine traffic through Switzerland, the Hupac Group transported 550,796 road consignments by rail in 2019, representing an increase of 2.8%.Overall, the past year was characterized by rather subdued demand. The first half of the year was still relatively strong in terms of volume, while the second half saw a decline in traffic associated with the cooling of the economy in the core markets.In non-transalpine traffic, a growth of 29.4% was achieved with 455,266 consignments. This significant increase is primarily due to the integration of ERS Railways with its services from the North Sea ports, which joined the Hupac Group in June 2018.
