DHL nabs supply chain award

DHL Supply Chain has been recognised with a Supply Chain Capability award by KEIPER, global manufacturer of automotive metal seat structures.

Now in its fifth year, the 2011 KEIPER Supplier Awards recognised DHL's efforts in managing additional activities within the manufacturer's logistics operations. The initial contract between the two organisations commenced in 2007 and was extended for a further three years in September 2010. Over this time the contract has evolved from solely managing the offsite warehousing requirements to undertaking receipt, checking and linefeed management of metal seat structures at the manufacturer's Birmingham factory. DHL was cited for its smooth implementation of the contract extension activities.
