Bharatbook.com is proud to announce the new report “Global Logistics Strategies” (http://www.bharatbook.com/detail.asp?id=30005). 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Fritz, Bax Global, Schenker, ACR Logistics, Roadway, Overnite have all disappeared as independent entities and have been replaced by global, single-source, integrated mega-logistics players. In part the acquisition frenzy has been driven by the need for companies from a range of backgrounds to develop into neighbouring logistics segments. This has 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. What does the report contain? Global Logistics Strategies examines the key trends in the industry, looking at why consolidation is taking place, whether it has been successful and which companies have grown to dominate the market. It contains analysis of a survey of all the logistics deals undertaken over the past five years to indicate where the main focus of acquisition attention has been placed. The report also deals in depth with the strategies employed by the leading logistics companies, looking at how they have been put into effect and their success. Each profile contains a comprehensive list of deals, showing the extent of their acquisition programmes and where available the prices paid. What will the Global Logistics Strategies report tell you?
