Rhenus Forest Logistics bundles timber services
From the beginning of October the wood services by Rhenus will be reorganised. The two units previously operating independently in the market, Rhenus Fehring in Bielefeld, and the Brenner Group in Plaidt, will be joined under the umbrella of the newly founded Rhenus Forest Logistics.
“Merging Rhenus Fehring and the Brenner Group, we would like to meet the requirements of our customers even better,” said Olaf Mohrmann, a member of the management board of Rhenus Forest Logistics. The operational sites including truck disposition in Bielefeld and in Plaidt will be maintained. Further offices are run in Switzerland and Luxembourg.
