Value Added Services, also known as VAS are additional services such as picking, packing, sorting or quality control. DFDS offers value added services that tailor your company’s unique and evolving requirements. Our goal is to improve efficiency and help your business surpass its competition.

There are many reasons why companies should use value added services when shipping products from one country to another. The 3 main benefits of using value added services are flexibility, quality, and ease of integration.

The most requested value-added services offered by DFDS are cross docking, co-packing, sorting, reverse logistics, quality check, custom packing, and labelling. Cold chain products for example require value added services such as repackaging, inspection services, shrink wrapping or blast freezing.

Value added services are of great importance for businesses because they allow a complete optimization of the whole supply chain. VAS contributes to quality control by integrating operations like labelling or packaging during warehouse pick-ups and before the distribution to the market.
