The key financial figures for the Logistics segment include the vehicle logistics and consultancy divisions. The results from dry bulk and fruit logistics are included in at-equity earnings.

The consolidated companies reported revenue of € 25.2 million, up 2.0 % on the prior-year figure (previous year: € 24.7 million). This was due in particular to increases in volume and revenue in the vehicle logistics division.
