"Best of both worlds"

More than 260 forwarders, one central hub and 26 Transshipment-Points form the most closely meshed network in Europe.

The TSP-Model 

Groupage with no detours: By choosing the TSP structure, you decide for the direct way of production without risking empty runs. The unique TSP-model connects all major economic regions with each other. Not only ideal lead times, but also excellent cost-benefits are achieved for your groupage business.

What is a TSP?

Transshipment-Points (short: TSP) bring the nearest node to your neighborhood. The TSPs in our network are operated by you! Our partners.

On the one hand, a TSP is a regional handling point, which consolidates outbound cargo and procurement shipments of our partners: Regional freight remains regional, supra-regional are forwarded via direct TSP-shuttles to the place of destination. A daily interlinking of all TSP locations provides ideal lead times at low costs. From each sending-TSP, every other TSP is reached on a daily line haul.

 

On the other hand, our TSP function as gateways for our international partners. A total number of 37 European countries are covered in our groupage network Sim Cargo. Direct, mostly daily, connections between our international partners and the gateway-TSP provide an excellent level of efficiency.

Short routes as ecological and economic benefit

The efficient location selection of our TSP delivers several benefits to our partners:
On average, our TSP are just 50 kilometres away from the nearest depot location. That is good for the environment and for you!
If capacity use fluctuates, the risk of vehicles not being fully loaded is minimal. After all, the nearest TSP is not far away. Another benefit of the TSP system is the enormous flexibility created by its closeness. Although a home TSP is assigned to every depot, at which the system partner inserts its outgoing goods into the system, the TSP model enables you to combine your own direct transport services with your groupage goods.
Are you interested in taking over the TSP function yourself? Contact us and together we will check the requirements.

The hub – our central node for transporting your goods!

Our hub in Homberg (Efze) is the heart of our Hub-spoke system. It is very conveniently located at the heart of Europe enabling very good links to all sim cargo partners. Our well-rehearsed warehouse team in Homberg ensure that your shipments are handled smoothly with over 6800 square metres of enclosed space, 900 square metres of administration area and 96 gates.
Bundling incoming and outgoing shipments at the hub means using resources to the full and increase the utilization rates. The flexible design of departure times means that even shipments which arrive late can be reloaded.

Our north-hub in Porta Westfalica and the south-hub in Stuttgart are the perfect completion to our central hub in Homberg (Efze).
The establishment of these regional hubs enables us to make our network even more effective and to optimize the routes between the hubs. This results in shorter transit times for shipments, which in turn leads to faster and more reliable transit times for our partners.

Long-goods? No problem!

Maximum security is ensured by a single handling operation to the destination depot. Our competent warehouse team know how to handle and load even big packages measuring up to 6.10 m in length. That means damaged goods and annoyed customers are a thing of the past.
