GLS expands international FlexDeliveryService
GLS has expanded its international FlexDeliveryService so it now extends to 12 countries. The service now covers Austria, the Benelux countries, Germany, Poland and also the countries of the GLS region Europe East, which includes the Czech Republic, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia and Romania.
With the international FlexDeliveryService, online shoppers are informed of scheduled parcel deliveries, allowing them to decide when and where they want to take delivery of their items – regardless of the country in which they were ordered.
In a statement sent to Post&Parcel today (22 May), GLS said: “The linking of twelve countries to form a single interconnected region is another milestone on the road towards a Europe-wide FlexDeliveryService. The integration of Denmark and France is already under way, with GLS also offering flexible delivery in these countries for parcels sent from Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Austria and Poland. At national level, FlexDeliveryService is available in all 14 countries. ”
The GLS service allows shoppers to choose from a wide range of delivery options, such as delivery on a desired day or at a GLS ParcelShop. Depending on the services available in each region, GLS also delivers in the evening, deposits the shipment at an agreed secure location or, in Europe East, leaves it for collection at a GLS parcel locker terminal.
