Expects to generate 30% more business for Thailand’s Computer Label Worldwide Co., Ltd., a 20-year long standing customer of DHL Thailand

DHL, the world’s leading international express services provider, recently announced major enhancements to its express delivery capabilities, and Thai exporters can now reap the rewards in the form of accessing Western U.S. markets in just one day. This service to Thai customers is currently unrivalled in the market.

“The United States is one of the major trading partners for many export businesses in Thailand. The new service has generated substantial interest since we first broke the news of our network enhancements two weeks ago, and we are seeing more take ups among our customers across a broad spectrum of industries,” said Chananyarak Phetcharat, Managing Director, DHL Express Thailand and Indochina. “The shorter time-to-market will bring about greater business opportunities for companies. We have also gotten feedback from many of our customers indicating that they are currently looking into revising their export forecasts to factor in a potential double-digit increase in sales coming from the U.S.”

“The new round-the-world flight service is our service commitment as DHL continually invests in our network infrastructure to provide unrivalled benefits to our customers and linking their businesses to the region and beyond. The introduction of three Boeing 777F freighters on the Transpacific routes will further enhance service reliability by reducing transit times,” added Ms Yasmin Aladad Khan, Senior Vice President, DHL Express South East Asia.

Computer Label Worldwide Co. Ltd. is a leading manufacturer of garment accessories for the apparel industry in Bangkok and has been exporting its labeling and packaging products for apparel and perfume brands all over the world, including the United States, since its establishment 1979. Partnering DHL the past twenty years, Computer Label Worldwide is one such exporter who expects sales to increase following DHL’s recent network enhancements.

“We started exporting our products to the U.S. market fifteen years ago, and we continue to grow our market share there. DHL’s new next-day service from Bangkok to Western U.S. and Canada will be a game changer for us. We are glad to have a trusted logistics partner like DHL who can assist us in growing our business. We are bullish of our sales target for this year and expect our total exports to the U.S. to increase by approximately 30 percent in 2012,” commented Mr Narongsak Thongvatanavanich, Managing Director, ComputerLabel Worldwide Co., Ltd.
