With the new control tower tapping into DHL’s global network of over 220 countries, territories, and niche shipping logistics specialists, DHL is well-positioned to capitalize on the spare parts logistics industry, which handles over three million shipments each year.

To that end, the company has also announced plans to invest $15 million over the next five years to continuously enhance its services to meet future customer requirements in this segment.

Operating around the clock, seven days a week, DHL’s global marine spare parts logistics control tower will offer the entire maritime industry differentiated solutions that encompass differential pricing and multi-modal transport solutions, ranging from pickup at the spare parts supplier warehouse to on-board delivery, including reverse logistics for parts return.
