DACHSER has become a new member of the cargo carrier’s top customer programme following the signing of an agreement.

DACHSER Far East’s subsidiary in South China received its certification as part of the Lufthansa Cargo Global Partnership Programme which has evolved in recent years into a major platform for stability and growth.

“We have a long established relationship with Lufthansa Cargo in South China which has been mutually beneficial in supporting growth and delivering a seamless service to customers in Hong Kong and across the Pearl River Delta and beyond,” said Edoardo Podestá, Managing Director, DACHSER Far East.

The two companies are looking to jointly enhance their global market presence by utilizing the synergies between the two companies. DACHSER will benefit from improved access to air freight capacity from Lufthansa Cargo, an advantage the logistics provider can pass on directly to its customers.

With a route network that covers some 300 destinations in over 100 countries, the airline ranks among the world’s leading air freight carriers.

DACHSER is an international logistics services provider headquartered in Kempten, Germany, where the company was founded in 1930 by Thomas Dachsere. DACHSER Far East Ltd. is a 100% owned subsidiary of the DACHSER Group. The company employs 700 people offering services from freight forwarding by air & sea, trucking, warehousing to contract logistics in 17 locations in Greater China with its regional head office in Hong Kong.
