  • Le marché belge du tracteur routier plonge de 25% au premier semestre 2002
    Le marché belge du camion (camionnettes lourdes, porteurs et tracteurs) a régressé de 21,2% au premier semestre 2002, chutant de 7.274 unités (au premier semestre 2001) à 5.732 unités. C’est une baisse beaucoup plus nette que ce que prévoyaient la plupart des constructeurs à la fin de l’année passée. Ils s’attendaient à une baisse de 10 à 15% pour 2002. Il se pourrait qu’ils aient raison malgré tout: la plupart des marques remarquent une certaine reprise des commandes ou à tout le moins de l’intérêt des transporteurs pour des nouveaux véhicules. Notons que c’est dans le secteur du tracteur que la baisse a été la plus forte: -24,8%, de 3.682 à 2.767 unités. C’est ce qui ressort des statistiques que vient de publier la Febiac.
  • E.ON accepte l’offre de la Deutsche Bahn
    Le conseil de surveillance du groupe E.ON a décidé d’accepter l’offre de la Deutsche Bahn pour l’acquisition de sa participation (65,4%) dans le groupe logistique Stinnes. La DB va dès lors lancer une OPA pour les 34,6% restants, qui sont cotés en bourse. Le conseil d’E.ON a par ailleurs décidé de procéder à la prise de contrôle total de Ruhrgas, afin de devenir le numéro 1 du gaz en Europe. Enfin, les chemins de fer allemand ont d’ores et déjà annoncé que les noms de Stinnes et de Schenker seront conservés et que ses unités d’exploitation dans le secteur des marchandises (DB Cargo, Railion Benelux et Railion Denmark) seront placées sous la responsabilité organisationnelle de Stinnes.
  • CFF Cargo supprime 120 postes de travail
    Afin d’augmenter la capacité de concurrence vis-à-vis de la route et d’autres entreprises ferroviaires de transport, CFF Cargo, le département marchandises des chemins de fer suisses, va supprimer au cours des prochains mois quelque 120 places de travail, sans licenciement. La mesure n’aura pas de répercussion pour la représentation belge de CFF Cargo à Anvers.
