Flash group unifies its market presence
Integration process at international logistics expert for time-critical freight results in establishing the uniform brand name Flash
The Flash group, made up of the companies Flash Europe, Taxicolis (former subsidiary of La Poste and since 2008 a member of the Flash group of companies), V-one (acquired in February 2012) and Roberts Europe (acquired in May 2012), has streamlined its brand portfolio. With immediate effect the enterprise is now present in the market under its new brand name Flash. The brand Biologistics, long established in the French market for pharmaceutical freight, will also be pursuing this strategy and is to be renamed Flash.
Flash Europe currently has 490 employees and runs its own offices in 18 countries. With its logistics expertise in time-critical road freight, combined with its team experts for air freight and air charter solutions, the enterprise offers a one-stop service for all facets of time-sensitive freight.
„A uniform corporate design is the final step on our path to integration. We have grown together as a one company,“ explains CEO Philippe Higelin. In the past 20 months they had created a uniform, streamlined organisational structure (38 offices in Europe, North Africa, Russia and Turkey) with a market-leading, high-performance IT and communications system across the entire group. Focussing on one brand offers the customers simplification in a highly complex market.
Carrying out 450,000 special trips in the year 2013 Flash is one of Europe’s biggest providers in this segment. In addition to direct trips (Premium Road Freight) the service range also includes air freight solutions (Premium-Air-Freight), tradelane services, sameday services, air-charter – through their own charter department –, on-board-courier solutions as well as intermodal transport on the road and by air freight. Flash has established a special competence for the healthcare and automotive segments. A global network across 78 countries meets the special requirements of its customers.
