DHL Spain strengthens outlet network through agreement with Prodesa

Following the signing of a collaboration agreement with press distributors, Prodesa, last year, DHL Express has expanded its Spanish outlet network to more than 375 sales points throughout the country.

Under the agreement, the Prodesa Rail Press and La Tienda Z outlets will offer DHL services functioning on the basis of a new pre-payment system, which provides clients with the packaging of their choice, together with a folder containing simple instructions to help them complete the documentation required for their shipment. Once wrapped, they can hand the package in at the collection point at their own convenience.

The geographical areas covered, guarantee of shipment deadlines and simplicity of this service enable DHL to offer a comprehensive service meeting all transport needs for packages, whether destined for Barcelona or Buenos Aires.

The campaign launched to announce this initiative throughout the month of November included more than thirty Prodesa newspaper stands in Madrid and Barcelona, and involved completely covering them to look like a DHL package.

This initiative will soon expand to the other Prodesa centres throughout Spain, bringing the number of outlets at which the DHL service is available to more than sixty.

DHL’s Spanish distribution network is expected to more than triple within the next two years.
