Happy holidays at the DHL hub in Leipzig: when the Christmas market lights up the hub

It's very Christmassy at the DHL hub in Leipzig! For three magical days, our hub was immersed in a festive atmosphere as the annual Christmas market brought smiles and cheer to everyone's faces.

The anticipation of the festive season reached new heights at the DHL hub in Leipzig this year. For three days, our hub was transformed into a pre-Christmas dream as the LEJ Hub Christmas Market took place.

Management handed out DHL Christmas calendars to build anticipation for Christmas Eve. But that was just the prelude to a celebration that was accompanied by cheerful music, a festive photo bus and an irresistible selection of treats. Children's punch, quark balls, bratwurst - the culinary variety was almost endless and completely free of charge for all colleagues.

Christmas at the Leipzig Hub not only means festivities, but also a peak period in terms of shipment volumes. The Christmas market was therefore not only seen as a festive diversion, but also as a well-deserved reward for the dedicated work of the entire team.

A special highlight was the gift shop, where colleagues had the opportunity to browse for presents and get in the mood for the festive season. The festively decorated Christmas tree was hung with the wishes of the Diabetes Kids waiting to be fulfilled. All colleagues could simply grab a wish list, get the right present and thus contribute to a special Christmas joy. The festive atmosphere, the shared moments and the opportunity to browse the souvenir shop made the Christmas market an unforgettable event.

It was more than just a market - it was a celebration of community, appreciation and anticipation of the most festive time of the year. The DHL hub in Leipzig shines in pre-Christmas splendour.
