DACHSER Morocco opens new warehouse in Tanger Med

Situated 14 kilometers from the shores of Europe, the Tanger Med port complex is the Mediterranean’s leading container port and a crucial component of Morocco’s ability to compete logistically. In response to growing demand among its customers, DACHSER Morocco has opened a new warehouse in this dynamic area.

DACHSER offers bespoke warehouse solutions

Operational since 1 March 2021, the new warehouse covers an area of 5,500 square meters and can accommodate more than 7,000 pallets. The objective behind this new facility is to provide customers across all industries with a bespoke warehouse solution that also offers excellent connections and optimum transit times through the DACHSER network.

For local industry, the Tanger Med site enables management of just-in-time flows, delivery between industrial development zones, and forward-deployed inventories. With this expansion, DACHSER also consolidates a range of services, which includes quality control on goods receipt, warehousing, order preparation, and other value-added services such as co-packing and labeling. Further services are available for imported goods destined for the local market.

Growing demand

“The launch of this new site supports the development of our business. It allows us to enhance our logistical capabilities to respond to growing demand from our customers. This new site will boost development in a region that is already experiencing the benefits of a solid industrial fabric”, says Mathieu Brouard, Sales Manager, DACHSER Morocco.

US West Coast Port Situation

These delays are primarily due to the following reasons:

  • Large number of positive COVID-19 cases among port workers
  • General industry shortage of port personnel
  • The upcoming holiday season
  • Too few crane operators
  • Chassis shortages

This is not a single ocean carrier challenge, this is an industry challenge.

Our concern for the near future is that the situation will only become more dire. More vessels are in transit already and delays will continue to increase. The situation will be intensified further by the trucker shortage that the industry is already facing.

In preparation to minimize the effects of these delays, we here at DACHSER are working closely and tirelessly with our contacts to check on drayage capacity, transit times, unloading updates, and potential demurrage charges. 

Please schedule the picks ups of your container freight well in advance in order to avoid further delays at your supply chain, and to also avoid additional charges at the port, such as demurrage and detention. DACHSER are here to assist you during this time and to help arranging pick up options to save you time and money.

We will keep you up to date on the status of your shipments as well as the situation in the ports. Should you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to contact your local DACHSER representative.

We also encourage you to sign up to receive our E-Newsletter to receive industry updates as soon as they become available. This can be done through our website: https://www.dachser-news.com/?lang=en-HK

It’s not often that logistics topics feature as prominently in the daily and business press as they have over the past few months. The global economy is recovering from the shock of the pandemic and in many places production is once again running at full speed. However, articles about the shortfall in raw materials and products, too few containers and pallets, the driver shortage, and a lack of storage space on overland, sea, and air transports are putting a damper on this revival.
