In a global competition of Air Cargo News, readers of the globally-circulated publication voted online for their best air cargo service providers. At the final gala ball in London at the end of April, DB Schenker was awarded as Global Freight Forwarder of the Year.
The global competition of the number one newspaper in air cargo publishing – now 30 years old – is the longest-established and most cherished worldwide air cargo awards event of its kind.
Nigel Tomkins, Managing Director and Editor of Air Cargo News, stated: “The judges agreed that DB Schenker has demonstrated a series of advancements across its global logistics business over the last twelve months. These include progress in quality and performance initiatives, technological innovation, sustainable compliance with changing regulations, network expansion, and substantial investment in new air/surface logistics infrastructure projects in key markets.”
“It is a great honour and a very good feeling to see that the readers of Air Cargo News give us their trust, even in a highly competitive market,” said Heiner Murmann, Member of the Board of Management of Schenker AG and responsible for global Air and Ocean Freight. “We see this as our obligation to continue our efforts and to further concentrate on the needs of our customers.”
