Hupac Anniversary Conference 2017 - Hans-Jörg Bertschi, Lucerne, 20.06.2017

Rising warehousing costs and long-distance road transport will over the next years automatically shift the balance. Currently, the transport sector is highly fragmented with competition as a secondary element. Within logistics, players in marketing and public space are initiating trade. Rail infrastructure components are scaling internationally, focusing on vision rather than driving, both nationally and internationally. The factor is the most popular type of players and implementation platform.
