About DSV – Global Transport and Logistics
At DSV, we keep supply chains moving in a rapidly changing world. Every day, we design and manage supply chain solutions for thousands of businesses, ranging from small, family-owned companies to large global enterprises. With a strong global network and a local presence close to our customers, we combine worldwide reach with in-depth local expertise.
With approximately 160,000 employees across more than 90 countries, our people are driven by a shared commitment to delivering exceptional customer experiences and high-quality services. We aim to lead our industry toward a more sustainable future and are dedicated to operating in balance with nature.
DSV is a dynamic and inclusive organisation that values diversity and mutual respect. We conduct business with integrity, honouring different cultures while respecting the dignity and rights of every individual.
Our Purpose: Keeping Supply Chains Flowing
Our purpose is to ensure our customers’ supply chains continue to flow smoothly. Each year, we move millions of shipments worldwide, earning the trust of customers and partners through reliable, efficient transport and logistics solutions by air, sea, road, and rail.
Our Vision: Sustainable Growth
Our vision is to create long-term, sustainable growth and value for customers, employees, shareholders, and society. Sustainable business practices are central to our strategy, with financial goals aligned alongside environmental and social targets to deliver shared value for both DSV and the wider community.
We remain focused on reducing our environmental footprint while conducting business responsibly. DSV is committed to achieving net-zero emissions across our operations by 2050, supported by clearly defined near-term targets for 2030 that have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
Our Mission: Operational Excellence
As global supply chains grow increasingly complex, our mission is to deliver operational excellence. We do this by leveraging our extensive global network and continuously optimising our services to meet evolving customer needs.
Enterprise Approach and Change Capability
A strong enterprise approach forms the foundation of our strategy and long-term success. By thinking and acting as one company across divisions and functions, we continuously develop our business and realise economies of scale.
Combined with our ability to execute change, this approach enables us to simplify complexity, standardise processes, and improve solutions. The result is greater efficiency, enhanced customer experiences, and higher productivity. These capabilities are also essential for the successful integration of acquired companies and the achievement of sustainable growth.
Mergers and acquisitions remain a key element of our strategy. Through a stronger global presence, we continue to expand and enhance our service offerings and networks. The acquisition of Schenker represents a pivotal step in DSV’s growth journey, strengthening our position as a leading global logistics player with unique solutions for customers of all sizes.
