Pekaes offers logistics services to Belarus

Pekaes, a logistics services provider, has announced a service for partial load consignments to Belarus. The company states that there is a large interest in the provision of services to the neighboring country, especially from Commonwealth of Independent States clients, while the competition doesn’t seem to be interested in this particular niche. To begin with, the service will be provided twice per week, with additional runs added as time goes on. Pekaes has invested in Spedkont and Chemikals, two logistics companies, the latter of which owns a rail terminal on the Polish-Russian border. The Central Statistics Office shows an increase in exports to Eastern European countries. In 2013, export to Belarus grew by 17.1 percent to a total annual sum of € 1.8 billion.
