DACHSER’s Post

At our annual DACHSER press conference in Munich, I reflected on our business development in 2023. My video statement summarizes the most important developments. Despite a challenging market environment we can look back with satisfaction. Our Road Logistics business was a very robust and stable backbone. In Contract Logistics, we expanded our global footprint. On the other hand, Air & Sea Logistics suffered from overcapacity and falling rates. We stayed on course, and more than that: We have invested not only in a series of strategic acquisitions to expand our global network but also in digitalization, climate protection and our people.  As consistent integration has always been our guiding principle, we want to link the processes and systems of our two business fields even more closely together in the future. With 'Global Groupage' we are planning to develop an integrated global, door-to-door solution for groupage in the years to come.  You can find all the figures and details in our press release: https://lnkd.in/ejSb68Kj     #IntelligentLogistics #Logistics #GlobalGroupage

Continue investing in future growth? Now more than ever!    At DACHSER, we’re constantly striving to consolidate, complete, and integrate our own groupage and logistics network in Europe and worldwide. We invest in additional capacity and locations to be close to our customers and offer them the highest possible levels of quality and reliability.     This is one of the ways we’re laying the foundation for our future. And this is why we continue to invest in our groupage network despite the difficult economic climate we’re experiencing at the moment.    Following this approach, we’re breaking ground for two new logistics centers in Germany this month. Here are some facts and figures about our investments in future growth: Ingolstadt, located right in the heart of Bavaria, allows us to serve our strong customer base in the area, and benefit from ideal connections to international locations across Southern and Central Europe. We’ve just broken ground on our new transit terminal and a 17,000-pallet warehouse for industrial and consumer goods. The new facility will be operational as of June 2025 and will create more than 90 new jobs in the region. Unna near Dortmund will also be home to a new multi-user warehouse and a transit terminal. In the medium term, about 290 DACHSER employees will have their workplace there. We plan to start operations in Unna at the end of 2025.  Both European Logistics branches will be built to high standards of ergonomic workplace design, energy efficiency, and sustainability: they will be equipped with LED lighting, photovoltaic systems on the roofs, charging infrastructure for battery-electric trucks and cars, etc. The Unna branch will be constructed on a previously used site. This brownfield approach helps us avoid further soil sealing. Of course, I have to mention that both branches will be equipped with our award-winning digital twin @ILO right from the start! For us at DACHSER, these investments reflect our commitment to quality and to our customers. They bring us another step closer to our long-term mission: to become the world’s most integrated logistics provider.  #groupage #growth #intelligentlogistics #network #DACHSER
