DHL Express and DHL eCommerce have collaborated to expand international express service touchpoints in Thailand. This synergy grants small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) seamless access to local delivery and international express services while personal shippers will have more delivery options.
By joining forces with DHL eCommerce, DHL Express can leverage the DHL eCommerce’s robust network in Thailand and their dedicated workforce’s expertise. This will enrich DHL Express’s portfolio of international express service touchpoints and elevate seamless customer experience. Services will initially commence at five branches from August onwards. By the end of the year, customers can access international express services at 20 DHL eCommerce ServicePoints. This brings the total number of service points customers can visit for international shipping needs to 55.
TheThe first five DHL eCommerce ServicePoints to offer the international express delivery service are located in Prachachuen Bangkok, Bangyai Nonthaburi, Tiwanont Nonthaburi, Teparak Samutprakarn and Kratumban Samutsakorn. The enhanced ServicePoints are open every Monday to Saturday, with varying operating hours.
Amidst the rising demand for cross-border deliveries, live commerce and cross-border sales convergence is projected to power growth in Thailand’s e-commerce sector by 13% in 2023. Globally, cross-border e-commerce is poised to reach USD 1 trillion in merchandise value by 2030. These forecasts reflect a significant opportunity for SMEs in Thailand to expand their businesses and tap on the global market.
The partnership of DHL Express with DHL eCommerce is a pivotal step in supporting the growth of SMEs. Through expanded access to international express services, SMEs can better harness the advantages of cross-border e-commerce in Thailand.
Customers will also enjoy the exclusive privilege of DHL Express’s On-Demand Delivery (ODD) free of charge. ODD is an online portal, where shippers can flexibly make changes to the delivery schedule that best suits the receivers’ preference. For example, the receiver can request a receipt of delivery to another address on a specific date or reschedule their delivery date and time.
