HarperCollins awards new business to DHL
DHL has announced a new contract with HarperCollins publishers, saying that their end-to-end solution was crucial to the contract win.
The contract will see DHL look after air and sea freight to HarperCollins’ sister companies and associates in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and India. DHL Global Mail will also be responsible for managing the daily international mail from HarperCollins facilities in London and Glasgow. It is estimated that DHL will dispatch approximately two million kilograms of mail and books a year.
Some of the major factors contributing to the win were DHL’s ability to offer a complete end-to-end solution, enhanced communication infrastructure, and a clear and streamlined management control, all with a single point of contact.
The logistics will be coordinated from the company’s dedicated Control Tower in Glasgow, near to the customer’s centre of operations.
