DPD Austria enhances its wine logistics offer
Trend for big wine boxes with DPD Austria parcel company; new service options for reception of fine drops
Wine fans, who are not always at home, now have access to a more comfortable parcel reception with DPD Austria. The optional service DPD FlexDelivery allows private recipients and business customers to choose the day of delivery from four consecutive working days.
In addition DPD is expanding its PacelShop network from currently about 550 to 800 shops until the end of this year. These shops offer the option to send parcels, but can also be selected as an alternative delivery address for parcels.
In the past wine year, cardboards for 12 bottles had been a fast seller in DPD Wine logistics. Every second sent cardboard had been a box for 12 bottles, followed by cardboards for 6 bottles. Cardboards for magnums (1.5 l) had been in demand in December in particular. In total DPD had been able to increase the volume of shipped bottles by 58,000 year-on-year to 2.39 million.
DPD Austria (Direct Parcel Distribution) based in Leopoldsdorf near Vienna is by their own account Austria’s leading private company for national and international parcel distribution. In Austria the company has about 1,700 employees and a fleet of 900 vehicles. In 2013 they shipped more than 39 million parcels.
