En dat doen we dan ook in deze editie. Veranderende business-modellen (die we tegenwoordig als ‘disruptive’ omschrijven) komen in meerdere artikelen terug. Zo beschouwt de topman van DHL alternatieven voor de pak- ketbezorging (pag. 11). Hebben drones de toekomst, of blijft het bij chauff eurs die aanbellen bij de besteller? Duurzaamheid was ook lange tijd een onderscheidende factor voor bedrijven – vooral in hun marketinguitingen. Dat veran- derde inmiddels. ‘Duurzaamheid is gewoon geworden, het zit in het DNA van veel bedrijven’, stelt Jurgen Hoppenbrouwers van Deloitte (pag. 15). Waarbij hij wel moet toegeven dat de lo- gistieke sector niet echt proactief is: bedrijven volgen de wen- sen van hun opdrachtgevers op het gebied van duurzaamheid. Dit, terwijl een meer duurzame houding tot kostenreducties leidt – en daar is uiteindelijk bijna elke logistieke dienstverle- ning naar op zoek. ‘Binnen twee jaar is 10 tot 15% reductie van het aantal gereden kilometers, brandstof en transportkosten mogelijk’. Schaalvergroting bij logistiek dienstverleners leidt, zo is de ervaring van Hoppenbrouwers, in de praktijk vaak tot een toenemend gebruik van schone modaliteiten, zoals spoor en binnenvaart. Laten dat nou precies de modaliteiten zijn die Duisport, de haven van Duisburg en de grootse binnenhaven ter wereld, succesvol weet te combineren. Binnenvaart speelde er altijd al een grote rol, maar het spoorvervoer wordt steeds belangrijker. Zo rijden er inmiddels 22 treinen per week van en naar China (pag. 17).
