DHL Global Forwarding is consistently expanding its service portfolio. Meeting the needs of customers looking for solutions to optimize freight costs, it offers companies and entrepreneurs a modern and flexible consolidation service called DHL AIR VALUE EXPORT. DHL Global Forwarding is targeting this new solution at companies exporting goods to Asia (Shanghai, Delhi, Mumbai, Tel Aviv, and Dubai) and North America (Chicago) that are looking for a cheaper transport service for less urgent shipments. As part of the new service, the transport of goods is carried out with a slightly longer transit time, but at lower costs.
– In response to the expectations of companies that are currently looking for greater savings, we have created an air freight product that guarantees reliable yet economical transport. As part of the DHL AIR VALUE EXPORT service, we skillfully select connections between major hubs to ensure the greatest possible cost savings – explains Krzysztof Bielica, Vice President of the Board and Air Freight Director at DHL Global Forwarding.
Freight of shipments begins at the warehouse in Piaseczno, from where goods are sent on one specific day of the week, and ends at the destination airport within 4-6 days of shipment. Currently, the operator offers the service to 5 Asian ports (Shanghai, Delhi, Mumbai, Tel Aviv, and Dubai) and Chicago, but the number of destinations for this service will be gradually increased. By using the new service, the customer can deliver goods to the consolidation warehouse at any time, where they will wait for shipment. The customer does not incur any costs for storing the goods. The DHL AIR VALUE EXPORT service does not limit shipments in terms of weight and dimensions. The dimensions and weight of shipments depend only on the type of aircraft used for the freight. An additional convenience for the customer is the ability to track the status of the shipment.
