DHL Express France to delivery winter clothes
DHL Express France said it will again provide express delivery of winter clothes and skiing equipment to retail outlets in France and Europe this year, including international shipments for skiing equipment manufacturer Eider.
From now on until the end of March, DHL teams will handle more than 100,000 parcels amounting to 1,300 tonnes and deliver them to the summits of more than 90 major mountain resort areas in France as well as to big European cities.
In extreme winter and difficult traffic conditions, the DHL Express teams of Annecy, Chambéry, Voreppe, Grenoble and Besancon will handle volumes that could be more than 60 pct higher than normal business. DHL said it will support its clients by recruiting additional staff, providing additional vehicles, adapted routes and longer opening hours.
The biggest manufacturers of winter sports equipment like Rossignol, Dynastar and Eider rely on this service, DHL said. This winter, Eider has chosen DHL France for international express delivery of its sports equipment and winter clothes to European stores in 48/72 hours. DHL Express teams from Annecy and Besancon will deliver more than one tonne of winter clothes and skiing equipment for Eider, picking up the goods at its production site to transport them via lorries to English, Belgian, Spanish, Swiss, Italian, Dutch and Austrian retail outlets.
