Logistics Insight Asia - New Products, 17/3/2008

First dedicated, one-stop suite of solutions to help Malaysian SMEs achieve their trade aspirations.

DHL, the world’s leading express and logistics company, has officially launched SME Logistics Solutions, a suite of comprehensive need-based solutions aimed at helping Malaysian Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) achieve their local and international trade aspirations. The launch was officiated by Dato’ Sri Rafidah Aziz, Minister of International Trade & Industry, Malaysia.

DHL SME Logistics Solutions draws on DHL’s flexible and reliable end-to-end supply chain capabilities, backed by its expertise in express, air and ocean freight, overland transport and contract logistic solutions, combined with worldwide coverage and an in-depth understanding of local markets. The program represents the first ever approach of providing holistic, one-stop logistics solutions by DHL specifically customized for Malaysian SMEs, which comes in three bundled solutions for SMEs who are exploring new markets, expanding in growing markets or establishing global presence.

The integrated solutions help SMEs at every stage of their supply chain - so that there is no need for SMEs to deal with different companies for their logistics needs. This will then enable them to focus on their core competencies and allow DHL to handle all their logistics transportation issues and requirements. Additionally, DHL SME Logistics Solutions not only provides complimentary logistics consultation by in-house logistics experts, but also helps SMEs identify new distribution opportunities and enter new markets.
