DHL announces 2016 rate adjustments

DHL Express has announced its annual general average price increase, which will come into effect on 1 January next year. In Germany and in the UK, the average price increase will be 3.9%. Globally, price adjustments will vary from country to country, depending on local conditions, and will apply to all customers where contracts allow.

The DHL Express products offered for private customers via post office branches in Germany, however, remain unaffected by the price increase.

Ken Allen, CEO, DHL Express, said: “Our annual price increase enables us to continue investing in our international time definite network and to maintain our leading service quality.

“Our major investment announcements in 2015 have included new hubs in Brussels, Belgium, and Singapore, and an expanded Americas hub in Cincinnati.

“We are also continuing to invest in the Middle East and Africa, where we have unrivalled networks, and to add freighter aircraft, particularly to strengthen our intercontinental connections.”

On 16 September, FedEx announced that it would be raising its shipping rates by an average of 4.9%.
