Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
The German branch of the French company DPD has opened a new site in Kaiserslautern, Rhineland-Palatinate. Around 130 people are expected to work at the new parcel sorting centre in the future.
With this new location, the company aims to strengthen its regional presence while also creating the technological foundation for sustainable logistics in the years ahead. At the heart of the facility is an especially quiet cross‑belt sorting system that can process up to 5,500 parcels per hour.
DPD Deutschland employs around 8,000 people and is part of the Geopost Group.
