New Direct Daily Service to Italy from DACHSER UK
Foremost European groupage network operator introduces a direct daily service from the UK to Italy. Customers benefit from its long-term Italian partner becoming part of the DACHSER network following the recent acquisition of a controlling share of FERCAM’s groupage and contract logistics divisions.
DACHSER UK is pleased to announce the launch of its new enhanced direct daily service from the UK to Italy. This development further strengthens its position as a quality market-leading groupage network across Europe.
Having started on Monday, 3rd June, this direct line between the UK and Milan in Northern Italy follows the successful implementation of the new Smart Border Connect solution by DACHSER UK last month. This innovation has created significant market demand for even more additional direct European export connections.
The new direct daily service comes a few months after the creation of the new company DACHSER & FERCAM Italia following the 80% acquisition of FERCAM’s shares in their groupage and contract logistics divisions by DACHSER. By enhancing the in-house network, UK exporters can be assured of the continuation of a quality, coordinated service at both origin and destination.
DACHSER has always had daily services to all European markets from the UK via our three Eurohubs and we are now excited to introduce this additional daily direct service to Italy which will service both British and Irish exporters.

Already the market leader in Italian export groupage offering customers 40 daily departures to all EU countries, this rich history of collaboration has allowed DACHSER UK to further enhance their service offering to Italy.
