The new DACHSER magazine is here!

Courage and confidence are always good companions, and at the moment they are more important than ever—there seems to be no end to the challenges and crises. Amid all the uncertainty, we at DACHSER take matters into our own hands in order to get the best for our customers. The stories in the new DACHSER magazine make this clear.

DACHSER magazine 02/2022

Read the cover story to find out how DACHSER, as a lead logistics provider, manages, monitors, and optimizes its customers’ global supply chains from end to end. This complex task has been entrusted to us by Camso, a leading manufacturer of industrial tires, wheels, and rubber tracks. In addition to transporting shipments, DACHSER also oversees the transparency and management of other logistics providers. You can find out how this arrangement came about, what preparations were necessary, and exactly how the cooperation now works on a day-to-day basis starting on page 6.

Another example of customized service can be found starting on page 20. Dachser won over US grill manufacturer Char-Broil with its warehousing expertise and the DACHSER DIY Logistics industry solution. As a result, the grills are on the shelves at the local DIY store or online retailer in time for the outdoor season in Europe.

In addition, in this issue we talk to Edoardo Podestà, COO Air & Sea Logistics, about the challenges currently facing the air and sea freight sector. Here, too, commitment and experience are the key to making customers’ supply chains as reliable and efficient as possible.

Incoterms 2020

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) will release new Incoterms 2020 around the 10th of September, providing certainty and clarity to businesses trading across borders everywhere. The new Incoterms will be effective as of January 1st, 2020. 

Every 10 years, the International Chamber of Commerce evaluates and revises the International Commercial Terms, better known as Incoterms, as a means of creating greater uniformity and effectiveness across the shipping industry. The latest version, Incoterms 2010, will stay in effect until January 2020.

What does "Incoterms" stand for?

It is an acronym standing for international commercial terms. Incoterms is a trademark of the International Chamber of Commerce, registered in several countries.

The Incoterms rules feature abbreviations for terms, like FOB (“Free on Board”), DAP (“Delivered at Place”) EXW (“Ex Works”), CIP (“Carriage and Insurance Paid To”), which all have very precise meanings for the sale of goods around the world. These terms hold universal meaning for buyers and sellers around the world.

The main Incoterms changes that are being considered are as follows:

The removal of FAS (Free Alongside Ship) as it is being used infrequently, separating FCA (Free Carrier) into two separate Incoterms, one for land delivery and one for maritime delivery and the committee is also considering bringing back the terms FOB (Free on Board) and CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight), instead of the FCA and CIP (Cost and Insurance Paid to) used for non-container shipments. There is also a debate about the creation of a new Incoterms called CNI (Cost and Insurance) to bridge the gap between FCA and CFR/CIF (Cost and Freight/Cost, Insurance, Freight). Currently, FCA includes the cost of international insurance on account of the seller-exporter, while CFR/CIF does not include the cost of freight. And lastly, to alleviate questions surrounding the party responsible for paying Customs fees, the ICC will evaluate the creation of 2 Incoterms to replace DDP (Delivered Duty Paid).

Other issues and updates being evaluated during this round include:

  • Transportation security
  • Regulations on transportation insurance
  • Relationship between the Incoterms and the International Sale Contract

We will provide another update once the official Incoterms 2020 rules have been announced by the ICC. Please contact us if you have any questions.
