Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at DB Schenker?

CEO Jochen Thewes has led DB Schenker since 2023. The firm's investment decisions are made by the executive board in coordination with parent Deutsche Bahn AG, which must approve major capital expenditures due to its state ownership.

Does DB Schenker act as a corporate venture investor?

DB Schenker does not publicly operate a dedicated venture capital arm. It has pursued strategic investments and joint ventures, such as its partnership in Shenker-Goverse in China, but these are primarily operational expansions, not investment funds.

What sectors does DB Schenker primarily serve?

Its core sectors include automotive, industrial goods, technology, retail, and consumer goods. It also serves pharmaceutical and healthcare logistics. The firm's operations are concentrated in contract logistics, freight forwarding, and supply chain management.
