Global Logistics Strategies 2006

An industry in transformation
The global logistics industry today is unrecognisable from just five years ago.
Consolidation in the sector has seen a plethora of well known companies consumed by
an increasing number of logistics giants which are now dominating the market.



Exel, Tibbett & Britten, Menlo, Fritz, Bax Global, Schenker, ACR Logistics, Roadway,

global, single-source, integrated mega-logistics players.

involved mail, express, rail, forwarding, road and shipping companies increasing
their scale and expanding the range and depth of services they provide to their
customers.
