Logistics Setup for Foreign Companies

A company entering the Polish market with a physical product needs a warehouse, distribution and transport — usually right when it's already busy with company registration, marketing and its first commercial contracts.

A company entering the Polish market with a physical product needs a warehouse, distribution and transport — usually right when it's already busy with company registration, marketing and its first commercial contracts.

The team responsible for market entry finds a lawyer, an accountant and a marketing agency — then realizes a logistics partner is still needed, one nobody has started looking for, because the vendor list to coordinate from abroad already felt complete.

Searching for a fourth vendor from scratch, on a different rhythm and a different contract, pushes back the moment the product actually reaches Polish shelves.

Logistics — warehousing, distribution and transport — is run by our trusted logistics partner, and Deston coordinates it as part of the whole market entry process, alongside the rest of the formalities and marketing, instead of leaving it as a separate topic for you to manage.

We're not a freight forwarder — logistics is run by a partner we work with on foreign companies entering the Polish market. The advantage isn't that we move goods ourselves, but that logistics is tied into the same entry plan as company registration and marketing, with one status report.

What we don't do: we don't negotiate freight rates or run our own warehouse — that's always the logistics partner, with the right equipment and licensing for that work.

What you get

  • Logistics tied into the whole entry planWarehousing and distribution launch on the same schedule as company registration and marketing, not as a separate, delayed topic.
  • One report instead of a separate forwarder contactYou get logistics status in the same place as the rest of your entry status, without separate correspondence with the logistics partner.
  • Less time spent finding a fourth vendorYou don't have to find and vet a logistics partner yourself from abroad — you use a relationship we already have.

The scope of logistics depends on the product type, volume and whether a permanent warehouse or just a transfer point is needed. Our logistics partner handles goods for foreign companies entering Poland regularly, not as a one-off job.

Scope and pricing

Scope covers coordinating warehousing, organizing distribution to Polish recipients, domestic transport, and one status report on logistics alongside the rest of the market entry process.

Getting started looks like this:

  1. Initial conversation — product type, expected volume, planned start date.
  2. The partner prepares a warehousing and distribution model recommendation.
  3. Terms are agreed and a contract signed with the logistics partner.
  4. Warehousing and distribution launch, tied into the entry schedule.

Cost depends on goods volume, delivery frequency and the warehousing model. You learn the price after an initial conversation with the partner. Coordinating logistics alongside the rest of entry usually costs less than searching for and vetting a forwarder separately after sales have already started.

Our guarantees

Logistics on the same schedule as the rest of entry. Warehousing and distribution don't wait for other entry elements to be settled first.

One status report. You don't have to ask the logistics partner separately for progress — it arrives in the same place as everything else.

Clear terms before you start. The warehousing and distribution model is agreed and confirmed before goods reach the partner.

Availability

The logistics partner takes on a limited number of new deployments in parallel to keep agreed delivery deadlines — the sooner you share expected volume, the sooner we set a warehousing model.

What you lose by waiting

Every week without a logistics model set is a week a product ready for sale in Poland has no warehouse or agreed distribution route.

Frequently asked questions

Is Deston a freight forwarding company?

No. Logistics is run by our trusted logistics partner — Deston coordinates it as part of the whole market entry process.

Can we order logistics on its own, without the rest of the entry process?

Yes, though logistics most often falls within scope alongside other entry elements, because then the schedule is shared.

What kind of product does the logistics partner handle?

Scope depends on the partner and the type of goods — an exact match is set at the initial conversation, after describing the product and volume.

What happens when goods volume grows during the engagement?

We update the warehousing and distribution model together with the partner as volume grows, without resetting the whole arrangement from scratch.

Who's responsible for delivery issues?

The logistics partner is responsible for running transport under agreed terms — Deston stays the point of contact and tracks the status of any report.
