Several bidders have submitted offers for the freight forwarder DB Schenker, anticipated to sell for over EUR 15bn. Deutsche Bahn has received confirmed bids from DSV, A.P.

This consortium is reportedly in talks with the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and GIC for joint participation. Strategic bidders like DSV, Maersk, and MSC are expected to be less aggressive on price compared to private equity funds. The interest from Saudi shipping group Bahri and Abu Dhabi's ADQ remains unclear. Deutsche Bahn will narrow down the suitors next week, with the process proceeding as planned. Maersk, DSV, CVC, Carlyle, ADQ, GIC, and MSC have all declined to comment on the bids.

Yes - I am biased... But,... this is nothing short of fantastic news for almost every supply chain professional on planet Earth. In fact for the broader population as well. This new network of the future will finally deliver a reliable backbone to global supply chains, where there is no need to trade off against speed or costs. And if that is not enough, this is also the most sustainable, resilient and agile network in the industry, which will be much easier to scale up and down with seasonality and other demand variables. Once fully up and running by mid-2025 it will allow our customers to increase on-time deliveries, reduce surprises and recovery costs, while reducing safety stocks, out-of-stock and obsolete inventory at the same time. Yes - we have tried before and not yet succeeded. But we have kept at it, determined to deliver a better product to our customers. And I am convinced we have finally cracked the code. I am super excited and looking very much forward to working with our customers to take full advantage of this significant improvement. #Maersk #NetworkOfTheFuture #reliability #speed #ImprovingLifeForAll
