"Partnership in Railway Transportation between Pasifik and Arkas"

Important Partnership: Pacific Eurasia and Arkas Logistics

Pacific Eurasia Logistics (#PASEU) has begun negotiations for a partnership with Arkas Logistics. This agreement is considered a significant step in both national and international railway transportation sectors. Pacific Eurasia's subsidiary, Pacific DTİ, has entered into discussions for the transfer of certain shares to Arkas Logistics. The parties involved announced on the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) that a memorandum of understanding has been signed and that work has begun on a detailed partnership agreement.

Goals and Vision in Railway Transportation

Currently, Turkey's share in railway transportation is at %5, with a target to increase this rate to %20 by 2035. This strategic move, developed within the framework of the Transport and Logistics Master Plan by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, is critically evaluated for the development of railway logistics. The aim of the partnership is to increase the private sector's share in railway transportation, combining the strengths of both parties to mobilize the dynamics in the sector.

Pacific DTİ and Transportation Activities

Pacific Eurasia Railway Train Operations (Pacific DTİ) has started its transportation activities directed towards Europe with locomotives and wagons acquired through a leasing agreement signed with the Republic of Turkey State Railways (TCDD) as of 2023. This development will allow for the emergence of significant logistical capacity at both local and international levels.

Conclusion: A New Era Is Beginning in the Sector

The evolving partnership between Pacific Eurasia and Arkas Logistics could trigger change across the sector, enabling railway transportation to become one of the most important dynamics in Turkey. The synergy provided by the partnership is expected to increase competitiveness in the market while accelerating sectoral developments.
