TNT Innight becomes NOX Nachtexpress
Mannheim, 08.08.16 - Just 14 days after the takeover of "TNT Innight" by "Innight Express Germany GmbH", the old TNT brand is finally disappearing from the overnight express business. The new owners are giving their service brand a new name and a new design. From now on, all services will be offered under the title "NOX Nachtexpress".
Managing Director Georg Kierdorf: "The new look represents a fresh start. Nox is working close to the customer again, service must become our strength again."
Nox, the Latin word for night, was deliberately chosen as the brand name: The times that customers use for regeneration are the main working hours for Nox employees. They specialize in delivering time-critical consignments across Europe before the start of the working day via their overnight express network. Together with network cooperations in 15 countries, over 10 million consignments were recently delivered each year. Kierdorf: "If this works professionally and reliably, we are an important value-adding factor for our customers."
The high-contrast design with its deep black and neon yellow color scheme is intended to set new accents, which are made concrete by new management priorities: In the past, TNT had outsourced services, such as the call center, and relied heavily on subcontractors and temporary workers. Kierdorf: "The quality of the service, which is very customer-oriented, suffers as a result. We will return to tried and tested in-house solutions." This is why employees with industry experience are an important building block for the new management. Their focus is on efficient, customer-oriented processes and the quality of the service.
TNT Innight had been operating at a heavy loss in recent years. In July, Innight Express Germany GmbH took over the business operations of TNT Innight as part of an asset deal. At the same time, TNT Innight Austria GmbH was integrated into the group of companies. The companies, based in Mannheim and Vienna, have over 1,000 employees and most recently generated sales of over EUR 200 million. There are also country organizations in the Netherlands and Belgium, which employ around 300 additional staff and are to be integrated into the group in the course of the third quarter. red
