Tesco appoints DHL Global Mail as preferred supplier for mail services
DHL Global Mail, Deutsche Post World Net’s one-stop shop for all mail services, has just been awarded a £12 million business contract as Tesco’s preferred downstream mail services supplier.
The contract will mean that around 75 million mail items for Tesco will be distributed through DHL’s Suresort sorted and unsorted services over the next year – representing a significant growth in DHL’s share of overall Tesco mail activity.
Tesco, which has over 1,500 stores and 250,000 employees in the UK, began working with DHL Global Mail in August 2005. Since then it has successfully managed the collection and distribution of a range of Tesco mailings including the large volume quarterly Tesco Clubcard mailing. The recent appointment builds on the established relationship and provides Tesco with additional cost and quality benefits.
