Continuous Improvement

Panalpina strives for operational excellence, constantly looking for ways to make every aspect of what we do better, easier, faster and safer. Our industry-leading continuous improvement program known as LogEx (Logistics Excellence) draws ideas from Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, Agile and Shingo amongst other approaches, and applies them globally in every area of our logistics and manufacturing business.

LogEx makes improvement part of Panalpina's DNA, delivering innovative, value-added solutions to our customers. It is not something we do on the side; it is the way we run our business.
