Since the beginning of 2024, BERGERecotrail trailers have been available to purchase via the Schmitz Cargobull sales network. The relevant authorities have approved Schmitz Cargobull AG’s 49-percent investment in Berger Fahrzeugtechnik GmbH as agreed between the companies in September 2023. With immediate effect, the two firms will consolidate their strengths and launch their relationship with the marketing of the lightweight BERGERecotrail trailer across Schmitz Cargobull’s Europe-wide sales network.

Discussing the next steps, Schmitz Cargobull AG’s Chief Sales Officer Boris Billich says: “We are delighted that we will now be able to offer our customers an even more extensive product portfolio as a result of our collaboration with Berger. Customers can now purchase the specialist lightweight BERGERecotrail vehicles through their Schmitz Cargobull contact partners. Transport firms will benefit from a greater range of vehicles and an extensive package of services for both product lines. This is hugely advantageous for our customers.”
