High shipping costs, complex logistics systems and complicated IT solutions – there are many reasons that make it difficult to enter the international mail order business. Yet there are high sales potentials and numerous potential new customers waiting to boost business. “Made in Germany” is still regarded as an unbeatable sign of quality all over the world – a competitive advantage that online retailers can use to their advantage. But there is good news: With the right partner:in logistics and software connectivity at your side, the first steps in international e-commerce are easily taken.
Since February 2022, DHL has been offering frequent shippers Merchandise Post International for the worldwide shipment of small-format, lightweight goods. From as few as 200 shipments per year, you can sign up for a DHL business customer contract that enables shipments to over 220 countries and territories worldwide. Shipments to foreign countries are particularly inexpensive with the standard shipping option of Warenpost International. For extras such as shipment tracking and liability, the Warenpost International Premium option is available for numerous countries. And even at peak times, you don’t have to worry about reliable shipping of your international shipments. This is because Warenpost International is transported within the Deutsche Post mail network and the respective international delivery partner, which means there are few capacity peaks and seasonal fluctuations to worry about. International Goods Post is particularly fast thanks to the electronic advance transmission of customs-relevant data, which enables rapid processing in non-EU countries. Just like Warenpost for domestic goods shipments, Warenpost International is now integrated into the Post & DHL system world and easy to order via the Post & DHL business customer portal. This means that you not only get your international shipments on their way quickly, but also have transparency over invoices and insights into current reports at all times. If you still want to keep an eye on your carbon footprint, you can optionally add the DHL service GoGreen for 100% climate-neutral shipping, in which the emissions generated as a result of transport are offset by investments in climate protection projects.
Heidler Strichcode GmbH has also already integrated Warenpost International into its system world, so that the foundation for borderless online trade has already been laid.
