Top 25 Global 3PL’s – 2008
It has been awhile since we last discussed the top 25 global 3PL’s. In fact, I believe the last rankings we wrote about were the numbers published by Armstrong and Associates from 2006.
The latest report I saw was an article published by SJ Consulting Group detailing the 25 largest 3PL companies based on 2008 overall revenue numbers in USD.
As with anything, I would suggest taking these numbers with a grain of salt since not all companies on the list are publicly listed.
Here are the top 10:
1 DHL Logistics (1) $39,900 – Germany
2 Kuehne + Nagel (2) $20,220 – Switzerland
3 DB Schenker Logistics $12,503 – Germany
4 Geodis (3) $9,700 – France
5 CEVA Logistics (3) $9,523 – Netherlands
6 Panalpina (2) $8,394 -Switzerland
7 Logista (3) $8,190 – United Kingdom
8 CH Robinson Worldwide $7,130 – USA
9 Agility Logistics (2) $6,316 – Kuwait
10 UPS Supply Chain Solutions $6,293 – USA
DHL continues to hold a dominant position on the list with nearly double the revenue amount of the number two player; Kuehne & Nagel. Notable companies that were not in the top 10 are Expeditors at number 11 and Hellmann at number 19.
The only company in the top 10 that I am not overly familiar with is Logista.
