Kühne+Nagel technology and logistics expansion

Overview

Kühne+Nagel is expanding its logistics capabilities with a strategic focus on high-growth technology sectors, specifically data centers and battery logistics. The company anticipates at least three years of double-digit growth in these areas.

To support this transition, the company has secured a long-term mandate from AWS to assist with data center infrastructure and has entered a memorandum of understanding with CATL to pilot battery-swapping technology for heavy-duty trucks in China and electrify transport flows in Europe.

Furthering its shift toward software-driven growth, Kühne+Nagel opened a new technology center in Chennai, India. This facility aims to employ approximately 250 specialists by early 2027 to develop digital products, primarily focusing on the company’s proprietary SALOG platform.
