Ramborn and CFL multimodal, through its subsidiary CFL logistics, are happy to announce the signature of a long-term agreement. The international logistics expert with its Headquarters in Luxembourg provides warehousing, customs and distribution services to the first Luxembourgish cider producer.
“I believe this partnership is just a logical step. At the CFL freight activities division we are invested in creating ecological solutions and are continuously working hard on providing sustainable supply chains for our partners. Our missions are both very much centered around implementing something that will serve future generations still. That’s one of the reasons I am happy we are now working together to make an even bigger impact and that we had the opportunity to create a custom solution for our new partner.” Laurent Erhard, CEO CFL logistics.
As a certified B Corporation, Ramborn was looking for a like-minded partner who would help improve the sustainability of their production chain. Both companies value tradition and perceive it as a strong foundation for spearheading thought-full change for future generations; from bringing back the long-forgotten tradition of cider-making (the tradition of “Viez”), in an effort to use otherwise wasted fruit, restoring ancient meadow orchards and preserving biodiversity, to pushing the transport community to shift their cargo towards the more sustainable rail transport solution whenever possible, both Ramborn and CFL multimodal are continuously striving to achieve profitable, yet environment friendly and socially beneficial operations.
“This collaboration will enable us to optimize our logistics and supply chain, ensuring faster and more reliable deliveries to our clients. Benefiting from CFL multimodal’s expertise in rail transport and green logistics solutions is a real asset to meet Ramborn’s future development challenges. We believe that this long-term partnership is a win-win situation for both parties, and we look forward to working together to push positive change in our sector and beyond.” Carlo Hein, Co-founder & President of the Board Ramborn S.A.
