Continuous success for duisport Group’s business model
duisport Group (port of Duisburg) increases container handling to record level and total turnover to EUR 148 million
Erich Staake, Chief Executive Officer of Duisburger Hafen AG (“duisport“) presented brilliant figures at the financial statement press conference 2010. Container handling and earnings before interest, tax and amortization reached record results. The container segment reached with the three modes of transport ship, rail and truck about 2.25 million TEU, which is equivalent to a plus of about 25 per cent on the previous year. All this confirms the plans of the port of Duisburg to further strengthen their capacities in the Rhine-Ruhr logistics region. Total output of the duisport Group rose to the record level of EUR 148 million – including sales from strategic holdings – in 2010. At EUR 9.4 million the result before taxes on earnings was well above that of the previous year (2009: EUR 7.9 million) and is also the best result in the history of the duisport Group. They invested a total of EUR 23 million into a packing hall, expanding handling capacities as well as building up the port and rail infrastructure. Quelle: LogEastics |
