DHL Worldwide Express was founded in 1969 by Adrian Dalsey, Larry Hillblom and Robert Lynn. The company name is composed of the first letters of the last names of the founders. The three founders personally brought freight documents from San Francisco to Honolulu by air. Customs duties on the corresponding ships could thus begin before the actual arrival of the ships. The success of this express service was to send accompanying documents before the actual transport of goods. In 2002 DHL was taken over by Deutsche Post AG. After Deutsche Post already had the majority of shares in Danzas in 1999, the three brands DHL, Deutsche Post and Danzas were merged into a global DHL brand as a result of a re-branding ("3D integration"). The models are therefore designed in the current design of the goods shipper. To do justice to the word "climate neutral", some of the vans are now also used as electric vehicles.This text is machine translated.
