DB Schenker Worldwide

About DB Schenker

DB Schenker is one of the world's leading providers of integrated logistics services.

DB Schenker is one of the world’s leading providers of integrated logistics services. It provides support to trade and industry in the global exchange of goods in land operations, in worldwide air and ocean freight, and in all the associated logistics services. Over 91,000 employees spread across at about 2,000 locations worldwide achieve a turnover of 18.9 billion Euros per year.

With around 2,000 locations in the world’s most important economic regions, DB’s logistics division has a global network geared toward customer service, quality and sustainability. The transportation and logistics experts offer customers tailored, continuous and cross-carrier door-to-door solutions as well as additional logistics solutions along the entire value-added chain.

As the economy has globalized, cross-border flow of goods have increased, raw materials and products have to travel increasingly long distances and competitive pressure has grown as well. Companies in industry and trade now place greater demands on their logisticians, while they concentrate on their core business and rely on external providers for complex logistics services. DB Schenker is set up to meet these demands. Whether by freight, train, truck, airplane or ship, whether storage, pre-assembly at the company or customs clearance, DB Schenker connects international markets and provides integrated logistics services.

Following the 2009 economic downturn, DB Schenker is once again on the path to growth and success in all areas – from rail to contract logistics.

DB Schenker is, for many companies, a strong partner:

No. 1 in Europe in rail freight

No. 1 in Europe in land transportation

No. 2 worldwide in air freight

No. 3 worldwide in ocean freight

No. 5 in global contract logistics

DB Schenker provides its customers with all the main services from a single source - a business principle that has proved its worth ever since the company was founded by Gottfried Schenker in Vienna more than 130 years ago.

DB Schenker, part of the Transport and Logistics Division of Deutsche Bahn AG, comprises the DB Schenker Rail and DB Schenker Logistics Business Units.
