DHL Express signs Nectar partnership

DHL Express has announced a partnership with Nectar Business, a b2b loyalty programme in the UK.
The partnership will provide “better value for small and medium sized customers who send international parcels and documents”, the company said.

As it stands, DHL Express is the only courier and logistics company to reward its customers with Nectar points.

Nectar Business will offer its SME collector base Nectar points on their everyday business expenditure.

Starting from today (4 April), small businesses can collect two Nectar points per pound spent with DHL Express.

Shannon Diett, director of marketing at DHL Express UK said: “This is just one of the many ways in which we are looking to support small businesses in an increasingly difficult economic climate.

“The partnership with Nectar Business is really exciting for us and we’re proud to be able to reward our customers through such a well established loyalty programme.

“We strive to offer customers an industry leading customer service on their express shipment needs and now we can offer Nectar points in addition.

“This means small businesses can get even more for their money and is yet another way that DHL Express distinguishes itself in the market.”

Louise Isaacs, head of Nectar Business added: “We are delighted DHL Express has joined the programme as it increases the number of places where Nectar Business cardholders can collect points.

“We’re really excited about working with a globally recognised brand such as DHL Express and believe the partnership will deliver significant opportunities for DHL Express to acquire, grow and retain customers.”
