DPD Austria: Great projects this financial year
“We will significantly expand our market position as the largest privately-owned provider through extensive investments in our parcel shop network, in our tours, our employees and in the depots and thus continue to position DPD Austria as a reliable and stable partner in the Austrian parcel service industry, ” says Rainer Schwarz, Managing Director DPD Austria.
Already in 2018, more than EUR 30 million were invested in buildings, cargo hold, technology, safety and vehicle fleet. This year, a further EUR 9 million are to be invested in the expansion of existing branches and the building of a new depot.
In addition, the company is seeking to expand the parcel shop network from 1,400 to 2,000 pickup parcel shops, extending the tour schedule from 1,200 to 1,400 tours and increasing the number of employees to 2,000 – by the end of the year. “We are confident that we will be able to master the challenges of the market successfully with all of these planned measures and thus continue to be available to our customers as a reliable and stable partner,” says Rainer Schwarz.
