Logistics giant Delhivery has reportedly announced a strategic partnership with Teamglobal Logistics to enhance its ocean freight services.
According to media reports, the partnership aims to streamline logistics operations for businesses engaged in global trade by providing a more integrated solution.
The partnership focuses on both inbound and outbound logistics, specifically in Less than Container Load (LCL) shipments, and promises to extend Delhivery's LCL services to over 120 countries.
Extended reach and services
As part of the agreement, Delhivery will leverage its inland Part Truckload (PTL) shipping solution, which spans more than 18,700 pin codes across India, to support Teamglobal’s operations.
In return, Teamglobal, India's largest LCL operator, will contribute its expertise in LCL shipments to enhance Delhivery’s global reach.
The partnership is designed to solve the long-standing challenge for Indian businesses of coordinating with multiple service providers for cargo transportation to and from international destinations.
