DACHSER Food Logistics in detail
Connected food logistics – also beyond Europe's borders
As one of Europe's leading food logistics providers, we master classic distribution and procurement as well as professional warehousing and complex contract logistics.
Through the European Food Network, our partner network, you benefit from comprehensive presence and standardised transport services throughout Europe. Our DACHSER Cargoplus Food team also manages temperature-controlled pan-European full truckload transports.
For your worldwide food shipments via air and sea freight, the DACHSER Air & Sea network is at your disposal.
The highest quality standards for your food logistics
Your goods are in the best hands with us. For all orders, we strictly follow your specifications and the legal regulations. We offer state-of-the-art refrigeration technology for all food products stored and transported at chilled temperatures, reliable end-to-end traceability at package level, and temperature documentation, backed by strict quality management. All processes are controlled and monitored by a quality management system in accordance with the latest versions of DIN EN ISO 9001 and IFS Logistics.
DACHSER Procurement: your partner for smart retail logistics
As a procurement logistics partner, we handle the national and international procurement of defined food ranges for retail chains. With pickup and delivery every working day, we ensure comprehensive supply to retailers with high product availability, reduce dock contacts, and implement customer- and location-specific delivery times.
High IT standards create transparency and security
With fully synchronised, IT-supported order processing, we ensure highly efficient, paperless, and cost-saving management of your flows of goods. All shipment-related data is exchanged with our partner companies via our EDI centre. This ensures a seamless flow of information for managing the transport of goods at all times. Our transport management system Domino and the end-to-end barcode-supported process ensure maximum security and transparency. This allows us to offer you convenient and reliable track & trace and traceability of your goods along the entire supply chain. Via our EDI centre, we support all standard interfaces and message formats common in the food industry, including EANCOM.
Eurohub and platforms – how your goods reach their destination quickly and safely
We are the only food network in Europe with a central European hub. The Eurohub near Frankfurt/Main is the central hub through which DACHSER branches and European partners can reliably handle their transport orders – in addition to the direct lines. The advantages of our Eurohub are crucial in food logistics: fewer handling operations and high utilisation make hub transports efficient and fast. The hub regulations, with their proven processes, fixed rights and obligations, and reliable departure and transit times, offer maximum security. Like our Eurohub, our export/import platforms also optimise the flow of goods to every region by consolidating at geographically convenient cross-dock points.
