DHL Strengthens Middle East-China Trade Lane
DHL announced a service enhancement to streamline shipping between the UAE and its 4th largest trading partner, China.
The enhanced DHL UAE-China Service is set to expedite shipments between both markets, offering streamlined service for UAE customers importing from the second largest economy in the world and the fastest growing trading partner with the UAE.
Using Time Definite deliveries and the Import Express product, DHL customers can – with one phone call – move goods from China to the UAE or any other destination using the UAE-China trade lane and pay for delivery in their home country – one invoice and one currency. Shipments stay within the DHL system from origin to destination allowing for easy tracking, anytime.
Future DHL improvements to support the flow of goods and documents between UAE and China will include additional ground network upgrades and ground fleet enhancements as well as added flights. DHL shipments in China are guaranteed daily uplifts and cargo space through 11 dedicated gateways – including four major gateways in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen – as well as 73 service centres covering 318 cities and over 500 flights per week.
