DB Schenker Case Study

 

About the company  

With around 76,600 employees at more than 1,850 locations in over 130 countries, DB Schenker is one of the world’s leading logistics providers. The company operates land, air, and ocean transportation services, and it also offers comprehensive logistics and global supply chain management solutions from a single source. 

Greater Manchester Growth Story  

In September 2023, DB Schenker showed its ongoing commitment to Greater Manchester with the purchase of a new site and a purpose-built development which will more than double the size of its existing facility. The 2.3 acre site at Trafford Park will offer almost 50,000 square feet of warehousing and office space.  

DB Schenker aims to actively recruit across a variety of roles from sales to warehouse operatives. The move will also mean it can continue to support an apprenticeship program in the UK which has flourished for the last two decades, developing and cultivating local talent.
