INNOVATION AWARD FOR MARFRET, FERRERO AND STEF 

At the SITL show in Paris at the end of March last, Marfret, Ferrero and STEF were presented with an award for innovation in logistics following the first temperature-controlled container shipment by barge, which took place on 9th December, 2011. The Nutella, Kinder and Rocher products will be taking to the river more frequently in the future, since the Ferrero France group plans to load five reefer containers each week onto a barge service, thereby taking 260 trucks off the road each year and reducing CO2 emissions by 30%.
