Daimler compensates truckers for increase in truck tolls

Muamer Hodzic February 18, 2009

Beginning March 1, 2009, Daimler AG will assume for all existing freight forwarding contracts the additional costs accrued by hauliers as a result of the truck toll increase that went into effect at the beginning of the year in Germany. The compensation will apply to companies that handle either procurement logistics or the distribution of completed vehicles and service parts. Daimler will continue to compensate for the additional costs generated by the increased toll until contracts will be adapted following negotiations or new tender offers.
