Editorial Magazine LAGERflaeche 03/2014

Dear readers,

I am delighted that our magazine has once again found its way to you.

The year 2014 is slowly drawing to a close and a new one is just around the corner. LAGERflaeche.de can look back on a successful financial year that was characterised by numerous innovations. In addition to the new customers we were able to acquire, we are also delighted with those who have remained loyal to us. We hope to continue our successful collaboration in 2015.

The coming year will be both exciting and  diverse, at least as far as trade fair participation is concerned. In 2015, LAGERflaeche.de will have a joint stand at LogiMAT in Stuttgart and at transport logistic in Munich. Planning for both trade fairs is in full swing. However, there is still the opportunity to participate as a co-exhibitor.

Our magazine also focuses on innovations and future-orientated topics.

In his article on the subject of minimum wage in the logistics sector, lawyer David-Christopher Sosna presents the innovations and explains what you need to bear in mind as an entrepreneur.

In recent months, CINRAM has undergone a transformation from a service provider to a full-service logistics provider. Mr Michael Schweinsberg describes this transformation in the article on page 10/11.

The topic of Logistics 4.0 was discussed at the Club of Logistics conference. You can find the results from page 12 onwards.

Our magazine provides exciting topics from the IT sector in the area of simulation technology. Here, Mr Mathias Bös explains how complex planning can be represented using simple simulation techniques (page 15/16).

The article by Mr Frank Linti on page 17 provides an overview of the current possibilities offered by RFID technology.

The logistics network LogCoop introduces itself and its plans for 2015 on page 19.

Now it remains to wish you lots of fun with the current magazine.
