Your benefits as a DB Schenker contract logistics customer
Resource savings
We want to save you time and money! So, let’s eliminate financial investments such as renting a warehouse, purchasing vehicles, or hiring staff – and the time-consuming transports of goods since a 3PL warehouse is nearby.
Faster processes
Logistical processes should be designed to avoid long-term storage and downtime – and, instead, increase the speed of delivery. As a 4PL provider, we take on these logistical tasks and offer you a customized solution.
Focus on core business
Organizing the delivery, storage, and transportation of goods can take up a lot of time and resources. However, when you outsource your logistics, you can focus on what matters most to your business – serving your customers in the right markets.
Better customer care
We can also manage your customer relations, a resource-intensive part of any business. Fast delivery, good communication with the customer, and effective handling of returns positively impact your customer loyalty.
