One service. Many transport modes.

Go beyond what an “only road" or "by air" freight journey can offer. 

Try a different approach with multimodal transport solutions that lower emissions & optimizes cost, while improving efficiency.

GEODIS combines at least two different modes of transport, including road, air & sea . And we tailor the transport model, based on your top priorities: transit time, cost, product, & environmental goals.

Sea/Air – Air/Sea

We offer flexible routing options & global coverage via strategic Sea-Air hubs (such as Los Angeles, China, , Singapore, & South Korea).

Sea/Road Transport

We coordinate the pickup and transport of your cargo from the port to the clients warehouse or final destination and vice versa.

A growing need for low-carbon transport solutions

Transport is responsible for 14% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and 23% of CO emissions. Its contribution is rising faster than any other energy end-use sector. In fact, direct transport carbon emissions could double by 2050, according to the Smart Freight Centre.

"It is not a mere pipe dream. We can do something to reduce our business’ environmental impact, while ensuring efficient and competitive transportation. By measuring and comparing the emissions generated by the different modes of transport, optimising all logistics flows, and choosing the solution with the less carbon intensive option at the right cost transport can become more sustainable."

 

Marc Vollet, Operational Excellence Director for European Road Network business

Frequently asked questions

When at least two different carriers, such as trucks, trains, ships, and planes, are used  to move freight, it is called multimodal transport. This reduces greenhouse gas emissions and optimizes transport costs. It's useful to transport goods within a country or a continent, and for intercontinental shipments. To manage this transport flow, we suggest working with an expert logistics partner.

With multimodal transportation you need skilled logistics personnel, to manage the workflows, who are difficult to locate. Same with technologies to orchestrate the transport flows. Threadbare transport networks are also a concern that can lead to an inefficient supply chain.

 

Luckily, with one single point of reference, everything from technology to labour and network can be outsourced. 

To optimise multimodal transport, you need to battle changes in fuel costs, container availability, general shipping rates, and sustainability concerns. Consolidating loads and compressing delivery routes are just some of the solutions. If that sounds like a lot to manage, know that it is. That is why logistics experts like GEODIS can optimise the transport operations for you.

If you are looking to optimize transport costs and reduced cargo insurance pricing, multimodal freight is right for you. It is also ideal for businesses that seek sustainable transport operations.

 

What usually drives customer’s choice for multimodal solutions is its service reliability and ability to reduce carbon footprint.
