Brazil: road-rail solution for automotive sector
Ventana Serra do Brasil, in cooperation with major logistics and intermodal operators in South America, has developed a road-rail solution in Brazil for container transportation in the automotive sector for its customer CNH Industrial. Until now, CNH Industrial semi-finished goods were being transported to the automotive plants of destination by road haulage only.
Now the manufacturer benefits from an efficient and sustainable intermodal transportation solution within Brazil: the goods, departing from the port of Rio de Janeiro, pass through the Sete Lagoas terminal in the state of Minas Gerais to be then delivered to the local CNH Industrial premises.
The new intermodal service runsweekly and reduces CO2 emission by 40% in comparison to road-only solutions. (ben)
