DHL Widens China–Europe Air Freight Network

DHL Express has expanded its air-freight infrastructure in China, centering on a €177 million investment to enlarge the Shenzhen Bao’an hub. According to the company, this is DHL’s largest investment on the Chinese mainland. The Shenzhen gateway’s capacity has been tripled to around 900 tonnes per day and the project is expected to create over 1,000 new jobs. DHL also added a daily intercontinental route using a Boeing 767 linking Shanghai, Bangkok, Bahrain and Brussels, adding up to 50 tonnes of transport capacity per day. DHL says the moves aim to strengthen transport links between China and markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Europe and to serve rising demand for heavier express shipments in sectors such as technology, manufacturing and healthcare.
