“Schenker is committed to driving innovation, which
is demonstrated throughout all levels in the company.

time at work than we do with our families.
So, we aim to build a culture where everyone
who joins Schenker Singapore feels like this
is their second home.”
Schenker Singapore’s success as a service
company relies on the attitudes of its people
and their relationships with customers. “We
are obsessed with our customers. I always tell
my staff, ‘Bring your customer home for
dinner’. It’s my favourite tagline and it means
that you should be such good friends with
your customer that you could invite them
and their family over for dinner,” he laughs.
“We are a service company, so we don’t own
a physical product – we own a service. So,
it’s about putting the right people in place to
help us achieve our vision. This passion and
positive energy is so evident throughout the
company that the customers can feel it as
well. They can sense the strength of our team
and the quality in their service.”
A SUSTAINABLE MINDSET
As the emphasis on sustainable practices
continues to strengthen, the global
transportation sector is being called on to
make a considerable contribution to these
efforts. As a leading green logistics service
provider, DB Schenker knows that as
transport grows, CO2 emissions can be
reduced. “Going green is one of our top
objectives, and it’s a mission passed down
from our German parent company. A lot
of consideration and hard work has gone
into making sure our new facilities meet
the highest international sustainability
standards for our industry,” Charlie explains.
“We believe in doing our part for the
environment. In our existing facilities, we
apply our mantra of constant improvement to
make sure we update our operating processes
and machinery to the latest in green energy-
saving technology.”
