- Temperature sensitive food transport, from ultra-fresh to ambient
The EFN is your partner for temperature-controlled group shipping and loads; our members take care of shipping packaged foods in all consignment sizes, packaging types and non-frozen temperature ranges on behalf of food manufacturers and retailers. Within Europe, we transport meat and sausage products, dairy products, wines and spirits, baked goods and confectionery, convenience and delicatessen products and cereals to trading companies, catering companies, wholesale service providers and the food processing industry.
- Efficient management of logistics processes for your shipments
Save time! Digitally controlled processes and seamlessly coordinated transport chains are the basis for fast, efficient delivery services throughout Europe. Export shipments crossing more than one border are fast-tracked through the Eurohub to arrive at their destination one day earlier – in some cases even from Friday to Monday depending on the countries and distances involved. Our service enables food suppliers to ship their products to large parts of Europe even on Saturdays, involving minimum transit times and one transhipment fewer.

The members of the European Food Network use a wide range of resource-saving and CO2 -saving measures to bring our customers' food to its destination and/or store it in a more environmentally friendly way. We are already using numerous battery-electric vehicles such as e-trucks in regular operations and also have the first hydrogen-powered trucks in test use."
"For us, the decisive factors for the safe and efficient execution of the complex tasks involved in the temperature-controlled transport of foodstuffs are the high level of standardization of the operational processes and our trained, highly motivated employees. Our customers also benefit from the cross-network IT solutions that ensure end-to-end transparency in the supply chain."
