Making dynamic adjustments to logistics networks

In October 2024, two authors —Christian Kille, Professor of Retail Logistics and Operations Management at the Technical University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS), and Andreas Backhaus, a freelance lecturer—published a study entitled “Chemical logistics on the move” (in German), which was supported by DACHSER Chem Logistics. Their study analyzed the current and future challenges and opportunities for chemical logistics in Germany and concluded with six recommendations for action. Now follows the double interview with author Christian Kille and Michael Kriegel, Department Head DACHSER Chem Logistics, to intensify the recommendations and to learn about the opportunities that arise from their practical implementation.
