According to the logistics provider, the building design has been tailored to enable more efficient, safe and sustainable operations. \u201cThe new site in Dortmund is a clear strategic step in the further development of our Road Freight network,\u201d says Thilo Meutzner, Managing Director of Road Freight at Rhenus. Plans for the new site include around 11,000 square metres of transshipment space and around 100 modern loading bays, which are intended, amongst other things, to ensure fast, flexible cross-docking processes.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Photo: Rhenus<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOLZWICKEDE \/ DORTMUND.
