Logistics BusinessEuropean Food Network Shortens Delivery Times to Scandinavia

The European Food Network is creating a new connection to Scandinavia and enhancing the European shipping network for food products. Bring Frigo, a Scandinavian player in food logistics, is now a forwarding agent for Norway, Sweden, and Finland.

Since the beginning of the year, transit times on the daily routes to Norway and Sweden in particular have become one day shorter on average. From the Hamburg platform, groupage shipments now regularly need just two to four days to reach Norway and one to three days to Sweden.

“Thanks to Bring Frigo, our customers will benefit from even better distribution performance in European markets,” says Alfred Miller, Managing Director Dachser Food Logistics. “With its high quality standards and close-knit network of locations in Scandinavia, the company greatly enhances the European Food Network.”

Bring Frigo is BRC-certified, employs 960 people at more than 30 locations across Scandinavia, and has over 1,100,000 cubic metres of storage area. Its fleet numbers some 1,300 vehicles that are classified for food transport.

With 13 partners, 11 forwarding agents, and regular scheduled services between 34 countries, the European Food Network is Europe’s most comprehensive network for food transport. This cooperation was founded in 2013 under the system leadership of Dachser.
