THE GEFCO GROUP IN 2014

CONQUERING NEW HORIZONS

A European leader in automotive logistics and a global player in industrial logistics, GEFCO provides its customers with comprehensive solutions for optimising their flows, at each stage in the supply chain, throughout the world.

With the backing of the JSC Russian Railways (RZD) and PSA Peugeot Citroën groups, GEFCO has the largest private land-based multimodal transport network, consisting of 80 hubs and depots and 65 logistics platforms.

Thanks to its demanding standards in terms of quality, its 4PL expertise and its services – Overland, Overseas, Finished Vehicles Logistics (FVL), Customs & Tax, Warehousing & Reusable Packaging –, GEFCO achieved a turnover of ¤4 billion in 2013.

Profile

At ¤4 billion, our 2013 turnover is the best ever in our history. Profitability, which was also up, has strengthened our capital base. These results are proof that our strategic focus has been the right one. They also bear witness to the dedication and the excellence of our teams, which have shared GEFCO’s unique expertise around the world.

We plan on doubling our turnover by 2020 thanks to the acceleration of our geographic and sectorial diversification, including our external growth.

In 2013, we accompanied our customers in new countries with the creation of subsidiaries in Dubai, Mexico and Croatia, and we strengthened our positions in the high-growth markets of Eastern Europe and China. In the coming years, we will continue to intensify our pre-sence in our current territories and expand our geographic footprint to the hotbeds of economic growth that are Latin America, China, India, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Russia. The objective is to offer manufacturers a global logistics chain.

INTERVIEW WITH LUC NADAL,

CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

› Fast moving consumer goods and retail

› Equipment industries

› Electronics

› Two-wheelers

GEFCO provides its customers with its expert knowledge of industrial supply chains, coupled with advanced expertise in inbound and outbound logistics engineering. Its 65 years of experience at the centre of the global auto-motive industry, one of the most demanding in terms of logistics, has allowed GEFCO to add value to all the sectors that it is involved in.

EVEN GREATER AMBITIONS SERVING ALL INDUSTRIAL SECTORS

The strategic zone known as “1520” takes its name from the track width (1,520 mm) which is used in Russia and neighbouring countries. This region is criss-crossed by a rail network, all of which is operated by the RZD Group. This key position repre-sents a springboard allowing GEFCO to offer its customers preferential access to these zones where access is some-times complicated.

› Preferential access to growth Russia and its nearby countries represent a major growth potential for companies from the zone, as they do also for international manufacturers of components and consumer goods.

› Turnkey solutions for impor-ting finished vehicles in the region up to their capillary dis-tribution.

› A freight management ser-vice which provides visibility in real time on its progress, thanks to a tracking system.

› Tailor-made services for sensitive freight: insurance services, transport plan prepa-ration and alternative proce-dures, urgent transport ser-vices, road transport security.
