Hermes Transport Logistics GmbH (HTL) and Jeena & Company have agreed to expand their collaboration in sea & air freight. The two global logistics companies are looking to strengthen their networks, particularly in Germany and India. Jeena has been the Otto Group's logistics partner in India for about 30 years and has been collaborating with HTL in India since 2009. The aim is to jointly develop new business and provide clients from both companies with a premium service.

In the course of 2009, the transport logistics division of the Hermes Logistik Gruppe (HLG) will be unveiled on the market under the name of Hermes Transport Logistics to take up the competition for new customers on the European market. Besides the swap bodies the company has deployed to date, up to 2,500 trailers will also be used for international FTL transport. The integration of Otto International Logistics into the company enables it to add sea and freight to its FTL business in 2009.
