Driven by this principle, DHL established trade routes to countries like Russia and China in the midst of the Cold War. When the curtain fell, DHL was able to instantly provide massive support to a multitude of companies in entering these “new” markets through its in-depth knowledge and logistical capabilities. Local businesses also benefited, as they leveraged new trade lanes to export their products to a global market.

DHL continues to break new grounds by establishing clear market leadership positions in various emerging markets such as the BRIC economies – Brazil, Russia, India and China – which are touted to be the agents of future trade development growth.

Appel concludes: “Our employees and customers have brought DHL to where it is today. Through them, we are determined to sustain our pioneering spirit, which for so many years has enabled us to offer solutions that help our customers reach their goals. By pro-actively and continuously encouraging innovative practical thinking, we are confident that we will overcome the current economic situation and are well-positioned to sustain our global market leadership – for now and for many more decades to come.”
