DTDC Express announces its expansion to Sri Lanka with the launch of its first store in Colombo, partnering with Parcel Lanka, as DTDC’s authorised franchisee in Sri Lanka. This opening represents a significant milestone in DTDC’s growth strategy for the South Asian market, following its established presence in India, Australia, the UAE, Canada, the US, Malaysia, and the UK. The new store will offer an extensive portfolio of services designed for its diverse audience, including domestic and international courier solutions, MSMEs & e-commerce logistics, and bulk shipping. As an established player in the Southeast Asian markets, DTDC will be launching its state-of-the-art logistics infrastructure along with technology-driven delivery solutions at the new hub in Colombo. In the future, the company will also explore advanced technology features, such as AI-powered tracking systems, automated parcel sorting, and self-service kiosks, to enhance the customer experience and streamline operations.
Sri Lanka has emerged as a crucial global logistics hub, strategically connecting major trade routes in South Asia. The demand for efficient and cost-effective logistics solutions is rapidly increasing, fuelled by the growth of online shopping, the expansion of MSME exports, and the dynamic landscape of international trade. This presents a unique opportunity for businesses to capitalize on Sri Lanka’s advantageous position.
