DACHSER is to invest in its location in Nuremberg, including the expansion of transit terminals for industrial goods and food by over 5,200 sq m.

In addition to enlarging the office building by 1,200 sq m, DACHSER is creating extra parking spaces for trucks and employee vehicles. The company is investing €22.5m in the project, the construction phase of which was completed at the end of May. The waiting area for trucks has also been enlarged and a parking lot for subcontractor trucks created, which brings the parking capacity up to 130 trucks.

The number of gates at the transit terminals and warehouse will be increased from 188 to 251. Alongside this, DACHSER is creating 1,100 sq m of additional space for customised services in contract logistics. The logistics centre serves, for instance, as a central warehouse for a well-known customer in the premium segment for wines and spirits. DACHSER provides this customer with a wide range of supplementary services in addition to storage, picking, and transport services.

“Over the past ten years, our location in Nuremberg has seen positive development in the areas of industrial goods and food, as well as in warehousing. So much so that we have now reached the limits of our capacity with the existing facility,” said, Bernhard Engel, Branch Manager European Logistics at DACHSER’s Nuremberg Logistics Centre.
