DHL Express today said it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Bharat Petroleum Corporation (BPCL) for a retail alliance with its In&Out convenience stores across the country.
This tie-up will progress in three phases giving access to almost 300-plus In&Out stores to DHL, a company statement said.
"This tie-up is very important to us as we plan to explore all retail approaches through the shop-in-shop and real estate tie-ups," DHL Express (India) Country Manager Craig Grossgart said.
In the first phase, DHL, in collaboration with BPCL, plans to roll-out across 25 locations in India which will further be extended to cover Tier 2 and 3 cities.
"Our extensive reach has ensured that customers can avail of both international and domestic shipment needs from one DHL-Blue Dart Express centre. Our tie-up with BPCL will only add to that customer convenience," he said.
With over 350 DHL-Blue Dart exclusive retail outlets in India, DHL has the largest retail network providing greater accessibility, reach and convenience to customers across India.
"We have taken a decision to be associated with DHL and provide our customers with convenience of added services at our select retail outlets," BPCL General Manager-Brand & Allied Retail Businesses George Paul said.
