Dachser expanding LCL business in Americas
In response to increased demand for less than container load (LCL) services, Dachser Americas has expanded its offerings throughout the Americas. As the global supply chain faces ongoing challenges, Dachser customers are looking to LCL for its reliable schedules, expedited transit times and enhanced visibility.
“The increased blanked sailings and reduced ocean carrier schedules as well as the reduction in air freight capacity are dramatically slowing down the flow of goods and accelerating demand for the reliability and efficiency LCL services provide,” said Guido Gries, MD, Dachser Americas. “Furthermore, as retailers cancel or reduce orders in response to the economy, many shippers are shifting plans from FCL to LCL.” The company provides 13 weekly LCL services between destinations in Germany, China, the USA, Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Chile.
