The e-commerce sector has been snowballing in the Philippines with a market value of US$7.5 billion in 2020 and is estimated to reach US$28 billion by 2025, reports the Department of Trade and Industry. With this growth in the e-commerce sector comes a boost in consumer demand for faster and more reliable international deliveries. Companies are expected to offer safe, secure, and fast international shipping to improve customer satisfaction and stay ahead of the competition in the market.
To ensure that they meet their customers’ satisfaction and continue growing their customer base, it is crucial for businesses to partner with a suitable logistics carrier to ensure that their orders reach the customers safely and on time.
It is with this in mind that DHL Express is constantly coming up with innovative ways to make deliveries quick, dependable, and secure. The DIYShipment solutions in the Philippines are the newest addition to these services.
