DACHSER reorganizes air and sea freight organization in Germany
Lean and more consolidated structure creates basis for growth
Effective January 1, 2026, DACHSER will streamline its air and sea freight organization (ASL) in Germany and consolidate operational processes at larger locations.

As part of the reorganization, the logistics provider will integrate the operations of its five smallest ASL branches in Germany – Berlin, Dresden, Mannheim, Rheine, and Saarbrücken –into neighboring, larger locations. However, local sales presences will continue to exist. Once the reorganization in Germany is complete, DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics (ASL) will be represented at 11 locations in Germany. The restructuring affects around 60 employees, who are to continue working at one of the remaining locations.

This allows us to optimize shipment processing while remaining close to our customers through sales.
Dr. Tobias Burger, COO ASL at DACHSER"DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics is positioning itself in Germany with a lean administrative structure and, at the same time, powerful operations. This allows us to optimize shipment processing while remaining close to our customers through sales," explains Dr. Tobias Burger, COO ASL at DACHSER.
Connecting the European network and global markets
"The restructuring will strengthen ASL Germany. We are focusing on a future-proof air and sea freight organization to connect the European groupage network with the global growth markets – and vice versa," explains Burkhard Eling, CEO of DACHSER.
