DHL and Mubadala form strategic partnership

DHL Global Forwarding has entered into a strategic five-year partnership with Abu Dhabi-based Mubadala Development Company. According to DHL, Mubadala is looking to “transform” its inbound to aerospace manufacturing logistics (I2M) as well as its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) material flows.

“With this new strategic partnership we as DHL can demonstrate our expertise as an innovative lead logistics partner. Our solution enables the end-to-end management of Mubadala’s supply chain creating visibility across all assets in scope,” commented Claudio Scandella, DHL CEO Middle East & Africa.

Homaid Al Shimmari, Chief Executive Officer, Aerospace & Engineering Services, Mubadala, added: “Mubadala’s aerospace and information communications technology companies are operating at the heart of global supply chains, where timely and efficient delivery is critical to ensuring competitiveness. As Abu Dhabi’s aerospace cluster develops at the Nibras Al Ain Aerospace Park, with new companies being established with our global OEM partners as well as the expansion of our current businesses, a robust supply chain supported by DHL, will be an essential part of future success.”
