Maersk will look to grow its business on the shore, not the seas in the coming years, group chief executive Soren Skou said in an interview.
The Danish group is looking specifically at opportunities in landside logistics and running companies’ supply chains or warehouses, Skou told the Financial Times.
Only one in five Maersk customers use the company’s services on the land side, but “one hundred per cent need a truck to get to and from the port,” he said, quoted by the paper.
