A new provider of logistic full range solutions is about to enter the scene in Germany and Austria. Yusen Logistics will be formed from 1 October 2011 through the merger of NYK Logistics and Yusen Air & Sea Service.

The merger of NYK Logistics and Yusen Air & Sea Service in Germany is the last stage of integration in Europe, which had been started in Poland and Hungary at the start of the year 2011. As of April 1 integration was implemented in Russia, Spain, Benelux, the Czech Republic, Italy and the UK, as well as in France the next month.

The new enterprise joins global presence and expertise of both companies in air freight, ocean freight, overland transport and contract logistics. Yusen Logistics is by its own definition offering a "one-stop service" providing full transparency throughout the complete supply chain.
