| It's official: DHL is discontinuing its U.S. domestic-only air and ground services. If you've been shipping with DHL, choose FedEx to make the transition as smooth as possible for you, your suppliers and your customers. |
Fedex has no qualms about spreading the word that one of its competitors is lopping off an arm of the business. It reminds me a bit of a famous quote (at least among a small circle of friends) from a former VP of mine. To paraphrase, he wanted us to dance on the bones of the dead children of our enemies. Oh, and poison their well too, I think. Yeah. That was interesting. Anyway,....
I had thought that DHL was subbing out a lot of its last-hop home delivery stuff anyway. Every now and then we'd welcome the equivalent of a delivery mercenary driving a van, dropping off DHL ground home deliveries back in Frederick- these guys didn't fly any company flags, i.e. they didn't have any logos on their truck or, er, "uniforms"... THESE guys were pretty rough around the edges.
