DPD expands its business and enters the CIS markets

In response to the growing customer requirements for quality parcel and freight delivery within the CIS, DPD has taken a decision to enter the transportation logistics markets of these countries.
Partnerships with strong local players have already been formed in Kazakhstan and Ukraine; plans are in place to enter other CIS markets such as Belarus and Azerbaijan. Currently the development of an integrated road linehaul network in the CIS countries is under way. The opening of a number of branches in the CIS countries is planned, e.g. in Kazakhstan alone there will be between 9 and 12 branches by 2013.
The range and quality of transportation logistics solutions to be offered by DPD subsidiaries in the CIS will be similar to those provided in Russia.
These changes have driven the need to optimize the structure of corporate governance. Effective April 8th, Sergey Kruglov, until recently General Director of Armadillo Group, has taken up the role of CEO Russia and CIS Cluster. Nikolay Voinov was appointed Armadillo Group General Director (DPD in Russia).
