At the end of May 2013, DSV Road introduced the DSV Daily Pallet service to its offer, connecting 32 countries within the European DSV network through a daily road groupage service. The new DSV service exceeded the threshold of 1,000 completed shipments in its very first month of official operation on the Polish market.
June turned out to be an exceptionally busy month for DSV Road, all due to the launch of the new groupage service, which offers customers daily collections, shipments, and deliveries of palletized cargo across Europe. In Poland, the first month of the new service concluded with a record number of over a thousand completed shipments, containing more than 2,000 packages. This represents nearly 400,000 kilograms of actual weight of groupage cargo transported by DSV in imports and exports within a single month.
– The immense interest in our new daily European service is a natural consequence of market development and the growing needs of customers regarding increased frequency and shorter transport times. Thanks to excellent transport coverage within our own structures in Europe, DSV Daily Pallet has enjoyed great popularity from the moment of its launch, both among our existing and new customers – says Jowita Prasał, Manager of the International Forwarding Department at the DSV Road branch in Łódź. – The introduction of the new service, with its operational center located in Łódź, has contributed to the dynamic development of our branch. This is certainly the greatest challenge I have faced so far, and I feel immense satisfaction, not only regarding the excellent results we managed to achieve right from the start, but above all, regarding the dynamic development of our operations on an international scale.
The DSV Daily Pallet service is the result of detailed consumer research conducted by DSV among over 1,300 customers in 21 European countries. The new service was tested and refined over the last 18 months so that, at the time of its official launch, it could offer DSV customers daily collections, shipments, and timely deliveries of shipments throughout Europe. Ordering transport via Daily Pallet is done through an easy-to-use online service, and the service is dedicated to palletized shipments from 35 kg to 3.5 tons.
