Just a few days after the announcement of the takeover of the logistics company CHRISTIAN SALVESEN, the NORBERT DENTRESSANGLE group received on November 26th the European Commission’s Road Safety Excellence Award.
The logistics company has been awarded by the European Union vice president and transport commissioner Jacques Barrot himself.

In terms of sustainable development, the reduction of the emission of greenhouse gases and sustainable and eco-friendly buildings is one thing, road safety is another one.

Thumbs up !

detailed info about the award

The subject will be widely debated at the coming SITL next March.

On one side, from a European point of view, the new locations for logistics and supply chain investments are further East. Poland, Roumania, Czech Republic, Slovakia are part of these new promising locations. Investors such as PROLOGIS, PANATTONI or PARKRIDGE are developping massive logistic centers overthere.

On the other side, from a more Frenchie (!) point of view, the new promising locations within France are further West. A new forum about the subject will take place next week in Paris La Défense: EXPANDI and we’ll see that locations such as Le Mans, Nantes Saint-Nazaire, Angers, Laval and Angoulême are among the next locations for good investments in logistics. Employment and consumption are there to foster future investments. I talked with Philippe ROUGé, Development Director of GSE last week about the subject. He gives his feelings (sorry, in French only).

See you there ? SITL ? EXPANDI ?
