Betz International files for insolvency
In early April, Betz International, a key subsidiary of the historic Willi Betz Group, filed for preliminary insolvency with the Tübingen court. Despite holding a robust order book, the Sonnenbühl-based logistics firm has succumbed to a perfect storm of macroeconomic pressures.

Additionally, a sharp downturn in German industrial production across the automotive, chemical, and construction sectors significantly reduced freight volumes. 

Interim administrator Dr. Dirk Poff is currently evaluating the company’s assets to determine restructuring viability for its 140 employees. This filing serves as another stark indicator of the structural crisis facing mid-sized German hauliers, who are battling rising tolls, high fixed costs, and the withdrawal of pandemic-era state support.
