Wallenborn Transports announces the signing of a new trucking partnership agreement with Cathay Cargo, concluded on February 5th, 2026, marking a further step in the development of their long-standing cooperation in Europe. The agreement reinforces their shared commitment to delivering more efficient, connected, and customer-centric intermodal transport solutions across the region.

Building on existing operations, the partnership supports the further expansion of Cathay Cargo’s European intermodal network while strengthening service quality, operational efficiency, and overall customer experience. For customers, this means broader connectivity across Europe, improved process reliability, and greater transparency throughout the transport journey.

A key element of the agreement is the introduction of new customer-focused capabilities, including live shipment tracking and real-time temperature data. These features will provide customers with improved visibility over their shipments, allowing for more precise monitoring and stronger process control in the handling of sensitive cargo. By giving customers and operational teams access to real-time shipment data, these tools also enable faster decision-making and a quicker response to delays or disruptions. For temperature-sensitive cargo in particular, early visibility of deviations helps support product integrity and reduces the risk of avoidable quality incidents across the transport chain.

The partnership reflects a shared ambition to combine operational excellence with digital visibility in order to meet the growing expectations of today’s supply chains, where reliability and service transparency are increasingly essential.

“This agreement with Cathay Cargo represents an important milestone in the continued development of our European trucking network,” said Frantz Wallenborn, Executive Chairman of Wallenborn Transports. “By strengthening our cooperation with one of the world’s leading air cargo carriers, we are not only expanding connectivity and efficiency but also delivering added value to customers through enhanced live tracking capabilities and real-time temperature monitoring. “

For Wallenborn Transports, the agreement also reflects the continued development of a company that has long been recognized in the industry as a key player in European road feeder services (RFS). This long-standing market position is closely linked to the company’s heritage: Frantz Wallenborn’s route into the business grew out of direct exposure to his family’s transport operations from an early stage, reflecting the continuity and operational grounding that still shape the company today.

This year, 2,719 exhibitors from 73 countries and around 77,000 visitors from over 130 nations gathered, with ACE alone occupying 22,000 m² of prime exhibition space. Since its debut in 2003, ACE has grown into a central global platform, reflecting the evolution of its parent event, which began in 1970 and is now the world’s largest logistics and supply chain fair.

Robert Schönberger (Global Industry Lead, Messe München) said, “When we started… it was just an additional segment. Now, it has become a full part of the exhibition.” He noted ACE’s growing international reach: “Participants from China… will return in 2025.” Stefan Rummel (CEO, Messe München) emphasized the fair’s global significance: “transport logistic 2025 has impressively shown… logistics plays in our connected world. It is the lifeline of the global economy.”

Ace  At the same time, it opened doors to new customers and collaborations, whether by visiting other stands or welcoming visitors to ours.

As Ashwin Bhat (CEO, Lufthansa Cargo) put it, “Personal dialogue… connects people and markets worldwide.” We experienced the same: in-person conversations at ACE were invaluable for building trust, sharing ideas, and deepening relationships.

This year, we also introduced a completely new stand design, created to attract both existing and potential customers. To complement this, we organized a stand party, offering a relaxed and enjoyable moment to celebrate with known faces and meet new contacts — combining business with a personal touch.

In addition, we presented our Accelerate magazine, first launched in 2023. The magazine introduces our company in an interesting and accessible way, offering insights into our business, showcasing products, and sharing important company news. It is designed not only to attract new customers but also to remind existing partners of the full range of services we provide.

While online meetings and emails are useful, ACE reminded us of the irreplaceable value of personal interaction. Face-to-face conversations spark ideas, build trust, and create a deeper understanding — things no virtual format can fully replicate.

In short, ACE 2025 delivered on both scale and substance. It brought people together, sparked meaningful conversations, and turned encounters into lasting partnerships — proving once again that the fair is a vital platform for the global logistics industry.
