UPS ends talks with DHL over shipping service

Jennifer McClelland | RSS | 0 Comments

Last year shipping service DHL announced it would end its shipping service in the United States. Since then, UPS has been in talks about carrying some of DHL’s packages in the U.S. The partnership could have generated $1 billion in annual revenues for UP, but the deals broke down and the two shippers have gone their separate ways.

Even if the proposed venture would have gone through, it would have been a 10 year deal where UPS would transport DHL freight between airports, not actually delivering packages to DHL customers.

DHL will continue to use ABX Air and ASTAR Cargo as its air service providers since DHL is accepting packages at locations to ship outside the U.S.

Those who have depended on DHL for years have been choosing between UPS, the USPS and/or FedEx as their delivery service.
