DHL supports Lindex’ freight distribution


DHL Global Forwarding has announced it will manage freight consolidation and distribution across Lindex’ network. DHL will offer solutions and support on all issues relating to its international supply chain especially with focus on purchase order management, consolidation services, supply chain visibility and management reporting across all the fashion company’s active markets. Cargo must be shipped from 240 factories managed by 140 suppliers around the world to one of three regional distribution centres in Sweden, the Czech Republic and Saudi Arabia. DHL will oversee the sea, air and rail transport for full and less than container load (FCL and LCL) of the entirety of the Swedish fashion chain’s cargo volumes from Asia to Europe and the Middle East. Lindex’ fashion assortment is available in around 490 stores across 18 markets as well as via e-commerce in 30 countries.

“Because of the high number of origins and destinations, Lindex needs a provider who can be a true partner, fully engaged and committed to developing solutions that work. We have a proven expertise across all transport modes and logistics services ranging from air and ocean freight to rail freight for FCL and LCL as well as customs clearance. We are thrilled to be taking over Lindex’ cargo operations again,” states Chris Arnold, Head of Operations – ISC Nordics & CEE of DHL Global Forwarding.

“Thanks to DHL’s experience, know-how and excellent customer service, we have been able to maintain our position in the market through enhanced visibility, continued supply chain development and seamless operations at origin and destination” said Lindex’ Maria Fransson, Transportation & Customs Manager of the partnership.
