DHL eCommerce opens Narita distribution centre

DHL eCommerce has officially launched its new outbound cross-border distribution center located in Narita, which it says will “give an extra boost to Japan’s booming cross-border e-commerce industry”. “In Japan, SMEs and sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay are the main cross-border e-commerce players, targeting markets in Europe, Asia, and the Americas,” said Yoshihiko Sasaki, Managing Director, DHL eCommerce Japan.

“To enable them to grow their business and reach a wider customer base internationally, they need a greater variety of international shipping solutions with high quality services while keeping their operational costs low. Specific e-commerce services are also needed, such as IT integration from shopping cart to delivery for a seamless logistics process.”
