On First of September 2017, two young women started their apprenticeship in the headquaters of DTG in Duisburg.

While Jana Benli will be trained as an assistant of the business management team, Denise Köbke decided to become an assistant for freight forwarding and logistics services.

Both behaved commendably during their probationary period and showed commitment to their work. They integrated well into the DTG’s family and so we like to welcome both of you officially. We whish the trainees all the best and much success!

On 26^th and 27^th of September the DTG was an exhibitor on the German-Dutch traide fair ‘Shipping-Technics-Logistics’ (STL) fot the second time. Located close to Kalkar (Germany) the DTG had it’s own booth.
It was a successful event which offered the chance for interesting talks and new contacts to shipping agents and owner-operators.
On 27^th of September 2017 the DTG had the chance to introduce the adventages of the cooperative model within the practical workshop ‘Binnenschiffahrt’.
Both, exhibitors and customers, appreciated DTG’s booth. On two days, several members of staff informed interested visitors and answered their questions.

Our ship has been on TV! The german TV channel WDR broadcasted a visit from journalist Robert who has been with us on MS Schönrein. In the news magazine for kids and yound adults called ‚neuneinhalb’ (nine and a half) Robert told his young audience about his experinces with the Schäfer-Family. For two days he lived with them to lean more about the work of a bargeman from cabin to command center to engine room.

Our MS Schönrein is a ship for floating cargo, which transports 55 HGV-cargos and passes the whole european waterways system. For the familiy concern environmental protection is very importtant. You can also spend your holidays in the ship’s own guest apartment.
