DSV Road is to launch a daily groupage service covering 32 European countries via a hub in Germany.
The service, DSV Daily Pallet, is due to start in early May, and will operate in addition to the existing direct routes.
René Falch Olesen, DSV Road managing director, said it would increase frequency and improve transit times.
“Every country will have a daily link with every other country in the network.
“We have seen an enormous growth in groupage loads as new purchasing trends such as reduced inventory and online shopping have changed demand patterns. So, after close consultation with our customers, we have designed the Daily Pallet service.”
The hub for the service will be DSV’s facility at Schwieberdingen near Stuttgart which will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
