DHL clinches five awards at AFSCA in Shanghai

DHL has landed five awards at the Annual Asian Freight & Supply Chain Awards (AFSCA) 2010 in Shanghai, China.

DHL was named Best Express Operator; Best Logistics Service Provider - Airfreight; Best Logistics Service Provider - Ocean Freight; Best Logistics Service Provider - Project Cargo; and Best 3PL.

Notably, DHL Express secured the Best Express Operator award for the 23rd time since the Asian Freight Industry Awards, predecessor of the AFSCA, started in 1987, a company statement said.

John Pearson, CEO, DHL Express, Asia Pacific and EEMEA, said, "It was a tough year for the industry as a whole and we're honoured to have emerged as the Best Express Operator. As we build on our achievements from last year, our focus will continue to be on the customer, particularly on simplifying the customer experience and developing our capabilities, especially in the intra-Asian network, to meet their growing business needs here."
