Pallet-Management-Services - AFM

Our business
Ë IFCO SYSTEMS is engaged
in two main business
segments. We operate a
RPC-Management-Services
business in Europe and the
United States and a Pallet-
Management-Services
business in North America.
| OUR BUSINESS |
Increasing market dynamics and globalization in commerce
are placing increasing demands on logistics providers. Today,
products have to be transported intelligently, efficiently and
above all, rapidly. While these requirements place high demands
on logistics management and transport containers, this market
shift also creates significant growth opportunities for wellpositioned
logistics service providers.
We have market leading positions in multi-billion US Dollar
markets and offer significant future growth potential in our
proven RPC-Management-Services business and our Pallet-
Management-Services business in the United States. Thanks
to our broad range of solutions we are able to meet virtually all
customer requirements in an individual, client focused manner.
Barriers to entry in both businesses are very high in light of
the large financial investments necessary for a comparable
RPC pool and the development of a geographic network
infrastructure which would be required to compete with our
European and North America RPC businesses, as well as our
Pallet-Management-Services business in North America. In
addition, we possess extensive market knowledge and unique
pool management expertise, and are proud to employ well
qualified managers with in-depth industry experience.
