Current situation on Suez Canal

As already reported in the media, the container ship “Ever Given” has been freed over the last hours on the Suez Canal.

The new DACHSER magazine is here!

The baton has been passed: the next generation of DACHSER management, led by CEO Burkhard Eling, officially took the helm on January 1 of this year. In the latest issue of the DACHSER magazine, we’ve taken a moment to reflect on this transition at the top.

A crane for Southeast Asia

DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics aided efforts to repair a crane in Indonesia by organizing the tour of a steel jib from Düsseldorf to Jakarta. Measuring 23 meters in length and 3.6 meters in width, the jib spent most of its 55-day trip on board a ship.

Consequences of adverse weather conditions in Spain

Storm Filomena has affected Spain in recent days and especially the Community of Madrid, we would like to give you some information about the restrictions on logistics.

Road Transport:

• Difficulties in distribution activities throughout the week, mainly throughout Madrid
• Restrictions on access to industrial estates due to accumulation of snow and vehicles
• Difficulties in collections, deliveries and shipments to other delegations. Journeys to and from Madrid may suffer significant delays
• Traffic restrictions for heavy vehicles (partially open on some roads)
• Temporary reduction of long-distance routes between delegations

Air Transport

• MAD airport starts operating slowly but suffers long delays due to cancelled flights
• Handling personnel are severely restricted and therefore air cargo operations start to run very slowly
• Customs operations are giving priority to express shipments
• Road access to and from Madrid suffer significant restrictions

During this week, the alert is still active due to very low temperatures (in some places below -10ºC), so please expect strong restrictions and incidents in all transport and distribution services.

If you have questions, please feel free to speak to your DACHSER representative. We hope that the situation will normalize as soon as possible, and we will keep you informed.

The new DACHSER magazine is here!

As the year draws to a close, many of us use this time to look back and reflect, but also to prepare ourselves for the new challenges of the future. And that’s exactly what we’ve done in the latest issue of the DACHSER magazine.

DACHSER offers parcel services via Global Sky Express

Due to the current special times in dealing with COVID-19, consumer behavior has shifted strongly to online commerce which leads to an even higher utilization of the courier / express sector, especially during the festive seasons. To provide convenience for our customers, DACHSER is offering an add-on service – Global Sky Express – in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand for the dispatch of promotional goods or large one-off consignment volumes. 

For a sustainable society: More and more NGOs are taking action around the world

In the course of globalization, internationally networked non-governmental organizations or NGOs are playing an increasingly important role. DACHSER’s partnership with children’s aid organization terre des hommes demonstrates how a company can support an NGO over the long term.
