DHL Express marks 39 years in Sri Lanka – it entered the market in 1980 as the pioneering logistics company in the country and has been operating under a joint venture with John Keells Holdings since 1992. Today, the company records a dominant market share, meeting the shipping and business needs of customers across an array of industries in Sri Lanka.

Continuously spearheading changes in the local logistics industry, DHL Express launched a state-of-the-art office complex facility in 2007 and in 2008, set up a gateway facility within the air cargo city at the country’s international airport. DHL Express customers in Sri Lanka have access to the only dedicated bonded warehouse, an air-side facility with 24-hour customs clearance and a 24-hour customer service support which offers the possibility of next day delivery to key destinations and markets.
Looking back at the transformation of a company that evolved from humble beginnings, DHL Express Sri Lanka has continuously raised the bar through innovation, unparalleled customer service and superior logistics solutions.
