Logistics provider Dachser is reinforcing its position in the Benelux countries with a new branch in Luxembourg.

The new company based in Grevenmacher is directly connected to the eurohub in Überherrn, Saarland/Germany.

“This enables us to offer all European facilities regular connections with standardized shipment times, even if they don’t run direct services to Luxembourg,” said Michael Schilling, Dachser managing director for European network management and logistics systems.

The Grevenmacher branch is located between Trier (Germany) and Luxembourg City. The site encompasses a 2,600 sq m transshipment hall with 18 bays, and 800 sq m of offices.

Initially, Dachser will employ a staff of 25 in Grevenmacher. Torsten Baasner, responsible for forwarding management at the Überherrn facility since 2006, will be manager of the new branch.
