FREEPORT, N.Y.--(Business Wire)--
Sony`s B2C group awarded DB Schenker with their "Special Recognition" award at
their 2009 Annual Transportation Conference held in San Diego, Calif., on June
1, 2009. 

"DB Schenker truly deserves this award for an amazing performance on the Sony
Green Glove program," said Doug Schauer, senior manager of B2C Logistics
Strategy. "We are very pleased with DB Schenker`s performance and dedication to
making this new program successful for the Sony Corporation." 

The Sony "Green Glove" program involves the delivery of a new Sony TV, set-up of
the TV in the customer`s home, hook-up of the TV to one electronic item, removal
of packing materials and debris, and return of one TV for recycling. 

"Sony needed a partner that would embrace their desire to fully participate in
the global green initiative of recycling used electronic equipment, specifically
TV`s," said Tom Pelliccio, vice president, Retail Sales. "We are pleased to be
recognized for our efforts in helping Sony meet its corporate objective to be
the leading green electronic company," he said. 

"We showed how DB Schenker could adapt its products to our customer`s
requirements. We looked at our `White Glove` inside delivery service and added a
reverse logistics component to create Sony`s `Green Glove` delivery," added
Pelliccio. 

DB Schenker combines all transport and logistics activities of Deutsche Bahn,
employing over 91,000 staff spread across about 2,000 locations in about 130
countries. With turnover of over 19 billion Euros, DB Schenker is a leader in
