TransContainer directors approve Company strategy to 2020

Company strategy is based on the expected long-term growth of the container market in Russia and the CIS driven by fundamental factors such as the low container penetration ratio as compared to the developed markets, the continuing growth of the economy and consumer demand, as well as a further increase in industrial production of value-added products.

The strategy envisages TransContainer maintaining leading positions in the growing container transportation market, further optimisation of its terminal handling business, the continuing write off of medium duty containers from the Russian Railways network and further development of the integrated freight forwarding and logistics business.

According to a Company statement, “The strategy indicates the Company’s measures to further improve operational efficiency.”
