DSV is a global freight forwarder headquartered in Denmark with significant operations in South Africa, including road, air, and ocean freight as well as project logistics. They're not a parcel courier in the traditional sense — DSV is best suited for larger consignments, palletised shipments, and B2B freight movements.

For occasional senders, DSV will rarely be the cheapest option for a single small parcel — they're optimised for larger volumes. But for businesses moving freight (>30kg, palletised, or oversized) they're a strong choice with global onward forwarding capability.
