DFDS Logistics - France

In France the DFDS Logistics team include specialists in temperature controlled distribution and contract logistics management. Our current client base includes major multi-national vehicle and chemical manufacturers.

Our offices in France are positioned in strategic locations to optimise the DFDS transport network in the area.

The first of our offices is located in Dunkerque, at our owned Ro/Ro ferry terminal servicing the UK. DFDS Logistics central management for contract accounts is based here.

From Boulogne we operate a chilled distribution facility covering all European destinations; also offering forwarding activities across Europe for both ambient and temperature controlled full and part load transportation.

From our French speaking office in Gent we are responsible for all transports from France to Sweden, Norway & Finland. In these corridors we are using the motorways of the seas, which essentially are the environment friendly RO-RO solutions between the ports of Gent and Gothenburg/Brevik, and for the Finnish market between Antwerp to Hamina. With our fleet of 800 trailers we offer reliable services for both small and large scale customers.

We also offer containerized combined road transportation services in France with multi-modal short-sea solutions between our Scandinavian terminals and the terminal in Gent. Please click here to review our sailing schedules.
