DHL this week announced the launch of its direct Less than Container Load[1] (LCL) service from Sri Lanka to Canada. The new direct service will greatly enhance the company’s strong presence in both Canada and Sri Lanka where Canada-based customers will benefit from an expanded DHL service portfolio and access to Sri Lanka’s vast natural resources in a secure and efficient manner, a company statement said.
DHL’s latest LCL service offering from Sri Lanka to Canada will serve to bolster the significant trade volumes between Canada and Sri Lanka – bilateral trade between the two countries. Among Sri Lanka’s top exports to Canada were apparel and clothing accessories, tires and tea, while top imports included dried leguminous vegetables, muslin and wheat, the statement said.
DHL currently operates the world’s largest LCL network with close to 2,000,000 cubic meters of LCL freight handled annually via 45,000 point pairs within the DHL in-house system. |
