“The
award is a testament to our heroic employees who have demonstrated time and
again their dedication, passion and can-do spirit in delivering excellence for
our customers, especially in such a tumultuous year. This is the 31^st
time that DHL Express is awarded as Best Logistics Service Provider — Express,
and it demonstrates our continued drive to innovate and improve for our
customers,” said Ken Lee, CEO, DHL Express Asia Pacific. “We would not be in
such a strong position today without our amazing colleagues, and it is why we
will continue investing in our people and infrastructure to further build on
the trust that our customers have in us.”

 

The
award comes amid an exceptionally challenging period for the logistics
industry, with belly capacity for international air cargo shrinking by roughly
60 per cent compared to the previous year, according to September 2020 data
from the International Air Transport Association (IATA). However, DHL Express’
focus on its core logistics business and investments in digital transformation
has enabled the organization to continue delivering industry-leading service to
its customers. In the third quarter, DHL Express
registered a record operating profit of EUR 753 million driven by a 15.8%
growth in its time-definite international express shipments.

 

The AFLAS Awards
is organized by Asia Cargo News to honor companies in the logistics industry
that exemplify excellence in leadership, as well as consistency in service
quality, innovation, customer relationship management and reliability. It is the
only Asian logistics awards to be decided by customer votes alone, earning them
a reputation as a reliable gauge for customer sentiment in the logistics
industry.
