Rail logistics as driving force
By realigning its business model, German railfreight company DB Cargo hopes to return to renewed growth. Nine months after assuming her new position, member of the management board for freight transport Dr. Sigrid Nikutta has now submitted a green concept for the future.
She proposes to add rail logistics to DB Cargo's traditional portfolio of block train, wagon-load and intermodal transport services. The plan is that, by the mid 2020ties at the latest, the rail company will have gradually established itself as a major rail logistics provider both in Germany and across Europe.
In pursuing this strategy, DB Cargo may also benefit from mega trends: the global freight market is generally expected to grow by 30% by 2030. (ben)
