"We have been active with our logistics at the Radeberg site for exactly 10 years. Until recently on around 5,000 square meters. With the new, significantly larger and technically optimally equipped hall, we are positioning ourselves even better and complementing our already strong regional presence. In view of the significant growth in business with existing customers and good growth prospects, this investment is exactly the right step for our strategic development," says Nino Walter, Head of Logistics at DB Schenker in Dresden.

The new Shared Logistics Center Radeberg will also expand capacities in the important solar logistics sector, both quantitatively and qualitatively. This is being done primarily in cooperation with our long-standing customer Solarwatt.

Logistics program for the greater Dresden area

The Radeberg site is conveniently located close to the A4 highway and thus offers an efficient and reliable interface to DB Schenker's efficient overland transportation network throughout Germany and Europe.

Overall, DB Schenker is well represented in the Dresden economic region with more than 450 employees at locations in Radeberg, Radeburg, Ottendorf-Okrilla, Zeithain and Dresden. The full range of logistics products is offered at these locations: Land transportation, air and sea freight, trade fairs/special transportation and global supply chain management.

Sustainability

A completely new fleet of vehicles and state-of-the-art technical equipment are the prerequisites for effective logistics processes and also create very good conditions for employees. Great importance was attached to sustainability when building the new Shared Logistics Center Radeberg. The new hall is
DGNB Gold certified and equipped with economical LED lighting. With charging points for electric vehicles, the site supports the increasingly important expansion of logistics e-mobility. The design of the infrastructure and social areas for employees is particularly socially sustainable.
