DACHSER moves and expands in Poland

DACHSER launched a new warehouse in Sosnowiec and moved its former Sosnowiec branch to it. The new facility is 80% larger than the previous one, including over 8,000 square metres allotted for cross-docking and contract logistics.

The newly built facility in Sosnowiec is 80% larger than the previous one.

Thanks to the investment DACHSER increased the surface of its branch by nearly 4,000 square metres. Nearly one third of the whole area is taken up by the cross-dock section, whereas half of the area is allotted for warehousing purposes. The office part amounts to 860 square metres. The newly built facility includes 34 loading ramps. Tthey are located opposite to one another, which enables faster reloading.

“The Sosnowiec branch of DACHSER is developing, the number of orders is growing. Therefore, the expansion of the infrastructure and the increase of our possibilities was a necessity due to our present and future needs”, says Paweł Parcz, Branch Manager European Logistics of DACHSER Sosnowiec.

A great advantage of DACHSER’s terminal in Sosnowiec is its location. The direct proximity of the A4 highway with the S1 road enables fast transport of the shipments. Thanks to the strategic location DACHSER can operate foreign orders even within 24 hours. There are 14 daily line connections from the company’s branch in Sosnowiec, thanks to which the groupage shipments reach all DACHSER branches in Europe, and then they are redistributed to their final recipients in given countries.

“DACHSER is developing very dynamically in Poland and the expansion of the Sosnowiec branch is one of the elements of this process. The enlarged area in the heart of Silesia gives us new possibilities to support our clients even better in the development of their businesses in Poland and abroad”, says Grzegorz Lichocik, Ph.D, Managing Director of DACHSER Poland.

The Logistics Center in Sosnowiec is currently one of eight Polish branches of DACHSER. Other branches are located in Stryków, Poznań, Szczecin, Wrocław, Gdańsk and in two locations in Warsaw, one of which is DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics.

With DACHSER Rail Service, we offer a time- and cost-optimized alternative to air and sea freight. DACHSER Rail Services not only provides a reliable rail link between China’s main economic regions and Europe but also serves both routes with a high frequency of departures from over 30 European and Chinese cities. The “New Silk Road” and the “Trans-Siberian Route” thus connect the economic regions of China and Europe.

Customers can order both groupage (LCL) and full container (FCL) transports. The respective routes for goods transport are via Zabaikalsk/Manzhouli in Russia, Dostyk/Alashankou in Kazakhstan, Erlian in Mongolia, Brest/Malaszewicze in Belarus, and Chop in Ukraine. The connection to DACHSER’s European network enables door-to-door service in collection and delivery. The DACHSER Rail Service Network is also an economically viable solution for your exports and imports to and from China.

Since the train journey along the Silk Road usually takes 16 to 22 days, it closes a gap between the ocean route, which takes up to 36 days, and much faster but more expensive air freight.

Your benefits:

Time- and cost-optimized connection of important economic areas in China and Europe
Cost-saving alternative to air freight in time-critical situations
Up to two weeks shorter transit time compared to ocean freight
Railway terminal in the hinterland instead of overland transport from/to the seaport
Optimized supply chain due to high departure density several times per week
Reduced carbon footprint: up to 90% less CO2 emissions compared to air freight
Exclusive Rail Service desks in Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hamburg for competent processing of your bookings

For your tailor-made solution and custom offer, get in touch with your local DACHSER contact person.
