Home Delivery Network announces completion of DHL domestic acquisition
HDN has completed its acquisition of DHL’s domestic parcel arm, but says it is too early to reveal how many jobs might be under threat as a result.
DHL Express says it will now concentrate on Time Definite International and Same Day express services, both internationally and in the UK through its Servicepoint facilities.
HDN says it has purchased the business to “allow it to challenge Royal Mail more effectively”.
In a wider preferred-supplier relationship, HDN will continue to use the DHL name for the service in the short term.
