DHL installs competence centres for exports to Iran


DHL Freight has installed two competence centres at its gateways in Frankfurt, Germany, and in Istanbul, Turkey, for exports to Iran. Due to the reduction of economic sanctions and the development of trade in Iran, the demand for logistics solutions is increasing.

“We are delighted about the new possibilities arising in the Iranian market. The recent political and economic developments present great potential for doing business. With its years of expertise our competence centres want to support companies realizing this potential by expanding their trade relations in Iran,” stated Amadou Diallo, Chief Executive Officer, DHL Freight.

DHL Freight defined multiple core services such as weekly departures of groupage shipments to Tehran from the gateway in Maintal, Germany. Additionally, the DHL Freight network can handle European freight with destination in Iran. The services also cover transportation of dangerous goods, temperature controlled shipments (+2°C to +25°C), warehouse logistics, customs clearance and GPS tracking of cargo.
