DHL to set up new Japanese bases
DHL Japan Inc. will build a 5,000-square-meter-plus warehousing and sorting facility at Central Japan International Airport, set to open next February, as part of a plan to increase its Japanese bases, the company said Friday.
The unit of Germany’s DHL International Ltd. also said it will set up 12 new service centers by next May in the Hokuriku region of central Japan, the Shikoku region of southern Japan and other areas where there are no DHL operational bases.
Total investment costs are estimated at 4 billion yen.
