Germany’s DHL Freight, the road freight unit of Deutsche Post DHL, is launching a global lead logistics provider (LLP) service under the new brand name GreenLink.

GreenLink will consolidate DHL Freight’s current and future LLP accounts across the world.

DHL Freight currently has some 60 LLP customers across Europe, the U.S., and Asia.

“Bringing them all together under one, neutral GreenLink brand will allow us to marry the global know-how with the local teams that understand their respective markets and customer requirements,” said Amadou Diallo, CEO of DHL Freight.

GreenLink acts as a single-source solution for transportation management, focusing on optimizing and innovating across the supply chain to provide reduced lead times, improved cash flow, and compliance.

It offers a host of LLP services, which are modular in nature and customized based on customer needs. Services range from transportation procurement, freight audit and payment, transportation and carrier management to network design and consultation.
