Logistics

Our new LOGISTICS corporate division encompasses
all activities handled by Danzas, the globally active
group we acquired in March 1999.This company contin-
ues to operate under the name Danzas, which has been
firmly established in the marketplace since 1815.
In terms of the LOGISTICScorporate division’s strategic
orientation, Danzas and its parent company Deutsche
Post World Net are a perfect match. The addition of
Danzas’s extensive range of services has enabled us to
realize our three most important strategic corporate
objectives – internationalization, expansion of our
product base,and value-added services – in one stroke.
Danzas is one of the world’s leading logistics corpora-
tions with presently some 38,000 employees worldwide.
The top-quality service that Danzas offers its customers
is founded on its many years’collaboration with first-
class airlines, shipping lines and other freight carriers.
Danzas operates on all continents, offering customers
the appropriate links for their business needs and, in
doing so, helps pave their way to new markets.
Besides its dense and far-reaching network of branch
offices in Europe, Danzas also maintains an interna-
tional IT network that ensures a rapid flow of infor-
mation to and from its customers.
With Danzas on board,our LOGISTICS corporate divi-
sion can offer the entire range of IT-based logistics serv-
ices. We provide manufacturers and distributors of
consumer and industrial goods with customized solu-
tions for every step in the supply chain.In order to meet
market and customer needs optimally, the Danzas
Group is divided into the following three business units:
• Solutions (food,cosmetics,pharmaceuticals,tele-
communications, electronics and automotive sectors.
The Solutions unit is also the market leader in the
fashion logistics business).
• Intercontinental (air and sea freight forwarding plus
project business).
• Eurocargo (European ground transportation).
