About DHL
Our History DHL Divisions DHL Network Sustainability DHL Airlines

The GroupInvestor Relations
As the global economy develops, we understand that automotive companies are facing a number of difficult challenges. Growth in developing regions? Sourcing materials internationally at the lowest cost? With markets everywhere becoming more competitive, companies are focusing on margins, while simultaneously searching for competitive advantage through innovation.
Today's automotive businesses demand streamlined, more efficient supply chains. Our customers need better control to cope with higher costs, shorter lead-times and increased service expectations. They have to raise supply chain visibility and find the right balance between inventory and product availability.
At DHL we offer proactive solutions that enable our customers to work even more closely with their customers, providing the control necessary to respond quickly and economically to both supply chain events and fast-changing markets.
The approach marries complex global sourcing requirements with integrated inbound to manufacturing solutions, and spans network design and planning, supplier collections, configuration and sub-assembly, cross-docking, merge-in-transit, sequencing and aftermarket, to name just a few - all integrated across our freight forwarding, contract logistics and transport businesses. We also handle non-containerised and oversized cargoes, along with time-critical and high-value goods.
Other services we provide to the Automotive industry include:

  • supplier parks
  • logistics optimisation centres
  • inbound logistics services
  • international supply chain more
DHL's managed transport solutions and lead logistics partner (LLP) services focus on improving entire transport and supply chain processes, and provide our customers with a single point of contact and control for all movements worldwide.

And for the service and spare parts market, we offer tailor-made solutions - from central and forward stocking to dedicated and expedited replenishment for dealers.
