Nov 4, 2020 at 7:39 AMAccording to a study by Focus Money, trans-o-flex Express GmbH is one of the four logistics service providers in Germany with the best price-performance ratio. The independent study evaluates the price-performance ratio for 23,000 brands and companies in Germany.
(Weinheim) – According to a study by the Institute for Management and Economic Research (IMWF), Hamburg, trans-o-flex is among the four logistics service providers in Germany with the best price-performance ratio. Commissioned by the magazine Focus Money, the IMWF conducted the study “Price Winner 2020” for approximately 23,000 brands and companies in Germany. trans-o-flex achieved 85.1 out of 100 points and received the Silver award for its price-performance ratio. No logistics service provider was awarded the Gold prize. Only three other logistics service providers received between 85 and 89 points. Eleven additional logistics service providers, who scored less than 80 points, received the Bronze award.
The study is considered very meaningful
For the study, which aims to show how good the price-performance ratio of brands and companies is, a total of 102 companies were evaluated in the logistics sector. Among them were also manufacturers of intralogistics solutions such as SSI Schäfer or Kardex Germany, which were the only ones to achieve more than 90 points. The study is based on a methodology called social listening. Between July 1, 2019, and May 31, 2020, texts were searched on the internet and social networks according to predefined criteria and filtered based on three fundamental questions: Which brand or company is mentioned (Entity-Matching)? What tone does the text part have (Sentiment-Matching)? What topic is being discussed (Event Type Matching)? From 438 million sources, approximately 67 million mentions could be assigned and evaluated to the 23,000 brands and companies. “Given the amount of data collected and its transparent analysis, this study is rated very high in terms of its significance and independence,” says Wolfgang P. Albeck, CEO of trans-o-flex. “We are even more pleased with the success of being among the four best logistics service providers in Germany as a medium-sized company.”
