DHL awarded at 2007 Asian Freight & Supply Chain Awards

Posted by | May 1, 2007 | |

DHL announced that it has won six top awards – Best Express Operator, Best Lead Logistics Provider, Best 3PL, Best Air Freight Forwarder, Best Project Cargo Forwarder and Best Sea Freight Forwarder – at the prestigious 2007 Asian Freight & Supply Chain Awards (AFSCAs). Receiving a total of six awards at the ceremony in Macau on 25 April reflects the company’s dominance as the only logistics provider that is able to offer integrated supply chain solutions across the entire express and logistics industry range from a single contact point.

The win in the highly coveted Best Express Operator Award category, for a record 21st consecutive year, is highly significant as DHL is the only company to have won this award since its introduction in 1987 at the Asian Freight Industry Awards – the predecessor of the AFSCAs. Receiving these six awards is a further affirmation of DHL’s market leadership and service excellence in air express and logistics offerings in Asia Pacific. The awards acknowledge DHL for its best-in-class expertise in each of its integrated service areas, covering express, air and ocean freight forwarding, as well as contract logistics.

The awards follow a series of recent DHL initiatives to strengthen and enhance service offerings in Asia Pacific to tap growth opportunities in the region. These include a USD35 million investment in Hong Kong for the opening of a new facility in South Kowloon; USD14 million in Vietnam for network and infrastructure upgrades and USD22 million for a new DHL Express Bangkok Hub. DHL’s investments in Asia Pacific sum up to an impressive over USD1.7 billion.

Post de-regulation offers reseller opportunities

Posted by | Apr 30, 2007 | |

Deregulation of the postal market will see new and traditional players alike scrabbling to implement mobile devices to survive, according to market watchers at Zebra Technologies.

The loss of the Royal Mail‚s monopoly has resulted in a plethora of delivery companies and courier services entering the industry, fighting to stay ahead of the game in a newly-competitive environment. Zebra is predicting that new entrants to the industry will fail in this market within twelve months if they are not properly equipped, due to the new levels of competition.

In the ‘War of the postie’ it is technology that will help new market players to stay competitive – mobile devices will make or break processes including delivery of registered mail, and collecting returned goods,” said Clive Fearn, vertical marketing manager at Zebra. “It represents a big opportunity for businesses to provide tailored systems to all the big players in Europe. There‚s so much pressure to stay ahead of competitors, it is essential companies are properly equipped to work efficiently, and offer as many services as possible.”

In the last twelve months, Zebra has supplied printers to leading postal operators such as Polish, Portuguese and Hellenic post. The company also works with businesses such as TNT and DHL, and with major postal and private operators across EMEA on projects including the mobile post and electronic stamps.
