Global container demand declines spurred by backhaul blues
All eyes on the tariff fallout
Contract logistics was the star performer in the second quarter for DSV, reveals the Danish 3PL’s latest round of interim results.
Group-wide, despite a 9% year-on-year increase in revenues, to DKr41.2bn ($6bn), DSV saw EBIT decline 12.4%, to finish the quarter at DKr4.1bn.
The decrease was mainly driven by declines in its ocean and air freight forwarding business, which saw an 18.2% decrease in EBIT, compared with Q2 23, to DKr2.9bn, despite a 7% year-on-year increase in revenue, to DKr24.6bn.
