Container hinterland logistics network Contargo is using the transport logistic 2019 in Munich to present its strategies for tackling major challenges of the future. From 4 to 7 June 2019, the enterprise will be present at the world’s biggest leading trade show for logistics, mobility and supply chain management, at booth 201/302 in hall B6.

“Our exhibition booth this year displays contrasts between old and new”, says Frank Hommel, General Sales Manager at Contargo.  “The old is represented by many traditional objects from everyday use in the sector, such as old-fashioned safety vests, original level crossing posts and a wooden ship’s wheel. They symbolise our traditional values such as reliability, safety and honesty. New are for instance our self-check-in system and a model of an electronically-linked crane, standing for innovative technologies that will help us master future challenges.”

Visitors to Contargo’s booth can not only obtain information from personnel about the products and the extended network of Contargo – they can also find out about dealing with megatrends like digitalisation, climate change, sustainability and demographic change.

The theme of automation, for example, is approached at the booth with an original self-check-in kiosk. These devices are already in use at several terminals where Contargo’s self-developed Terminal Operating System has been introduced. Here visitors to the trade fair can “check in” at a simulated terminal and set the digitalised processes into action.
