DHL expands reach in Asia-Pacific region
Express and logistics firm DHL has further expanded the reach of its industry-defining Time Definite Delivery (TDD) to connect the Philippines to nine countries in the Asia-Pacific.
With the TDD service in the Asia-Pacific region, sending time-critical and express morning deliveries to Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand is now possible.
DHL’s TDD portfolio includes the StartDay Express, which offers the Philippines guaranteed door-to-door delivery by 9 a.m., and the MidDay Express, which offers guaranteed next-day delivery by 12 noon. Customers are able to track the status of their shipments via the DHL website as well as notification from DHL through e-mail and facsimile once deliveries have been made.
“TDD is the best option for those who have to meet last-minute deadlines on deliveries,” said DHL Philippines country manager Larry Llamzon. “The latest development of TDD brings our service levels to new heights as we enable our Filipino customers who are in need of an urgent service for their time-sensitive shipments to Asia-Pacific to do so.”
TDD is available within the four geographical regions of Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East, and Africa. With this interregional expansion, TDD customers in Asia-Pacific can also send their documents and packages to two other clusters: Middle East and Europe.
With this latest service expansion, DHL now increases its list of destinations with 150 new cities, enabling customers to send TDD StartDay Express and MidDay Express shipments to even more places around the world at a guaranteed time.
