Growing demand for rail logistics between the Nordics and Europe
The Nordic and European rail logistics markets are experiencing sustained growth, driven by strong infrastructure networks and increasing intermodal demand. Structural changes in supply chains and a continued modal shift from road to rail are further supporting market expansion across the region.
Strong momentum in China and Central Asia

- Nurminen Logistics' active route development has made the company meaningful player in developing intercontinental corridors.
Sustainability and regulation as long-term growth drivers
European companies face tightening emission‑reporting requirements, increasing the demand for low‑emission transport options such as rail. Environmental awareness continues to rise across Europe, making rail an attractive solution for reducing logistics-related CO₂ emissions.
Global trade routes and market uncertainty
Global trade patterns are evolving due to geopolitical developments and supply chain reconfiguration. These shifts increase the need for flexible, alternative rail corridors. Nurminen’s ability to rapidly establish new services, such as direct container routes from Asia, supports resilience and customer continuity in uncertain conditions.
