“These results were driven by the significant increase in demand for cargo transport services, as well as by the introduction of new services and improving existing ones,” said Albin Budinsky, CEO of Schenker Romtrans, who coordinates 1,200 employees in Romania.

The company’s turnover started to grow after Budinsky restructured the departments, made layoffs and updated the product portfolio in the last two years. Last year the company reported a turnover of EUR62 million, EUR1 million more than in 2009.

Parent company DB Schenker is one of the largest providers of transportation services worldwide, with EUR15 billion in turnover in 130 countries across the world in 2009, according to data on the company’s website.
