DHL will create “a powerful logistics center” in Kyiv’s left bank Liski rail hub for container trains going to and from China, Ukrzaliznytsia CEO Volodomyr Zhmak writes of a memorandum of cooperation signed Friday between the state railroad and DHL Global Forwarding. To open up new east-west routes, UZ is finalizing similar agreements with BTLC Germany and Poland’s PKP Cargo Connect. To promote the rail hub near the Darnytsia rail station, Zhmak appointed last month Edvins Berzins, former chairman of Latvian Railways, to be executive director of what is formally called the Liski Transport Service Center. After starting last June, container trains now run almost weekly from China to Liski. Around Ukraine, there are now 36 routes regularly plied by container trains.
