“Over

Director Sophie Ahmed.
JadeWeserPort, Germany's first deep sea container port, opened on 21 September 2012 and will be exhibiting. “The most important feature of the newly opened JadeWeserPort is the tide independent 18 metre depth that enables JadeWeserPort to call ultra large container ships at any time.” says Dr. Jan Miller, CEO of JadeWeserPort Logistics Zone GmbH & Co KG.

Visitors to Intermodal Europe will see the launch of GreenCat's new Cat4RailOperator software, which supports the operational needs for companies transporting cargo through their own rail network with their own rail equipment.

Logistical Automation, supply chain software and fleet management company GreenCat will also be exhibiting the new ATX (Android Telematics Xchange) on-board computer.
