eyefortransport Weekly Newsletter 12th September 2013

European Warehouses Mapped; Positive News in USA; High-Tech Business to Boost Air-Freight?

In our almost constant quest to provide you with brand new and unique resources each week, we are happy to introduce you to our latest offering – we have just released the first edition of the European 3PL warehousing map featuring 14 million square metres of warehousing space owned by 3PLs. 47 companies, in 33 countries, have made their details available, listing a total of 713 warehouses.

This list is by no means exhaustive, and we welcome additional submissions for a planned second edition to be released in December which will feature even more detail with pin-point mapping, so stay tuned for that.

Lastly, if you run a vehicle fleet, we would love to hear your views on the use of future technologies (software) in this area, and we have a very short survey for you to complete here.

 

Regards,

Chris Saynor
CEO, eyefortransport
