The Dachser Air & Sea Logistics organization operating in Europe and Africa has been honored with the Cargo Quality Award. The award was granted for high-quality cooperation – Dachser achieved the highest level of delivery reliability among other logistics operators.
For Lufthansa Cargo, the main criterion was maximum reliability and “on-time” cooperation. Delivery quality, the minimum number of booking cancellations, and the Cargo 2000 RCS rate (number of shipments handed over for transport) were particularly important. Lufthansa Cargo measures individual indicators monthly to identify the top three partners. In the category of freight forwarders and logistics operators who completed at least 200 shipments with Lufthansa Cargo operating in Europe and Africa, Dachser Air & Sea Logistics proved to be unrivaled. Lufthansa Cargo has a separate award category for Germany.
– At Dachser, service quality is a priority – said Thomas Krüger, responsible for Dachser Air & Sea Logistics in the Northern and Central Europe region. – This award confirms that we have done our homework well – he added. Thomas Krüger accepted the award on behalf of all employees during a ceremony held at the Lufthansa Cargo Europe and Africa Forum 2014.
