DHL sees new opportunities in Thailand with its Strategy 2030, reaffirms its commitment to help drive Thailand’s economic growth
- Identifies electric vehicles (EV), e-commerce and supply chain diversification as key focus areas in Thailand
- DHL is well positioned to support Thailand’s ambitions with investments ahead of the curve over the last few years
BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 March 2025 – DHL, the world’s leading logistics company, today announced its strengthened commitment to Thailand through its Strategy 2030 – Accelerate Sustainable Growth, with opportunities to position Thailand as a key regional hub as more businesses look to build supply chain resiliency in Asia Pacific.
Thailand hosts all four DHL divisions operating in full force, enabling Thai businesses to access DHL’s global network and solutions from a one-stop logistics partner. DHL’s Strategy 2030 addresses five key megatrends shaping Thailand’s economic landscape: Global Trade, E-Commerce, Sustainability, Digitalization and Evolving Workforce.
While these industry changes present new challenges, DHL’s strong track record and global footprint position it uniquely to seize significant opportunities for additional growth. Other than the megatrends, DHL also sees opportunities for Thailand in the following key growth initiatives:
Geographic Tailwinds
DHL will build on its strong global footprint and local expertise to capitalize on geographic tailwinds. This addresses the profound shift in growth of trade lanes, diversification of global supply chains, and the needs of fast-growing companies around the world.
While Vietnam and Indonesia have gained much attention for supply chain diversification, Thailand’s strong manufacturing base in the automotive and electronics sector gives it an advantage. The Ministry of Commerce announced that exports expanded by 5.4% throughout 2024, the highest annual figure in the nation’s economic history.
Key markets such as United States, China, Japan and the European Union were the main drivers for the growth with the United Kingdom emerging as a promising market for Thai businesses.
New Energy
The transformation of the renewable energy and auto-mobility sectors requires dedicated logistics solutions, and DHL sees opportunities for Thailand as a key Southeast Asia destination for EV production. This is bolstered by the Government’s effort to attract foreign manufacturers to establish local production bases.
DHL’s extensive solutions across the EV supply chain will help Thailand achieve its goal of having EVs account for 30% of its vehicle production by 2030.
E-commerce
Thailand’s e-commerce sector is experiencing rapid expansion. According to the Thailand E-Commerce Association, the market value is projected to grow from $26.5 billion in 2023 to $32 billion in 2025, reflecting an approximate 21% increase over two years, translating to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 10%. DHL plays a crucial role in supporting Thailand’s vibrant SME sector, which comprises 3.2 million businesses contributing 35% of the country’s GDP.
Success stories such as Gentlewoman and Fairtex demonstrate how local Thai brands can tap on DHL’s comprehensive logistics solutions to achieve international growth. The combination of DHL’s global reach and local expertise provides Thai businesses with the capabilities they need to compete effectively in the global marketplace.
Initiatives such as DHL’s GoTrade program provide capacity-building assistance to more than 9,000 SMEs worldwide. In Thailand, DHL Express developed the program, in collaboration with key government agencies including DITP and OSMEP, to help Thai businesses effectively navigate international trade opportunities.
In addition to facilitating international trade, DHL eCommerce supports e-retailers, SMEs, and brands in penetrating the Thailand market by offering reliable, high-quality delivery solutions at an affordable price from DHL eCommerce. DHL’s commitment to excellence ensures businesses of all sizes and sectors can grow and succeed in an increasingly digital and competitive domestic landscape.
DHL reaffirms long-standing commitment to Thailand
DHL’s long-standing commitment to Thailand is demonstrated through its comprehensive operational footprint and continued investment in infrastructure and capabilities. It currently employs more than 9,300 people across the four divisions.
DHL Supply Chain currently manages over 678,000 sqm of warehouse space across more than 70 facilities, including those in the Eastern Economic Corridor. Through its extensive transport network, the company efficiently handles approximately 4,800 vehicle loads daily. The company is making significant investments in developing more sustainable warehouses and is also set to expand its electric vehicle fleet by 300% over the next three years.
DHL Express operates a robust aviation and ground network encompassing one regional hub at Suvarnabhumi Airport, 15 service centers, 131 owned and partnered service points, all facilitating international door-to-door express deliveries. The network supports 85 dedicated flights weekly while 100% of service centers are equipped with solar panels for renewable energy generation.
DHL Global Forwarding specializes in air, ocean, rail, and road freight forwarding services. With seven offices and three warehouses totaling 8,480 sqm across Thailand, DHL Global Forwarding serves more than 2,000 customers. The new DHL International Multimodal Hub marks a significant investment in strengthening Thailand’s position as a regional trade center. The facility streamlines shipping processes by enabling seamless transitions between different modes of transport and simplifying customs procedures at a single location. This facility also offers valuable connectivity for landlocked neighbors like Laos, providing diverse transportation options.
Meanwhile, DHL eCommerce’s extensive nationwide delivery network — comprising 151 last-mile depots, over 2,000 vehicles, and 230 service points — ensures full market coverage, with up to 97% next-day delivery service. Committed to continuous innovation, DHL eCommerce invests in advanced solutions to enhance service quality for e-retailers, SMEs, brands, and enterprise customers. A major hub upgrade is planned for 2026 to further strengthen its capabilities.
Leading the Way in Sustainable Logistics: The Green Logistics Provider of Choice
With the company’s goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, DHL’s commitment to sustainability in Thailand is demonstrated through comprehensive initiatives across all four divisions. The company has made significant progress in vehicle fleet electrification, with all divisions implementing EVs in their operations.
DHL Express Thailand has emerged as a pioneer, becoming the first international express logistics provider to deploy an e-bike and EV fleet in Thailand. The company has achieved 21% fleet electrification with more than 50 electric vehicles for first and last-mile deliveries. It also supports customers in reducing their scope 3 emissions by utilizing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) via the GoGreen Plus service.
DHL Supply Chain reinforces this commitment through its more sustainable transportation with the deployment of more than 30 electric vehicles in collaboration with retail, consumer, and automotive sector customers, while implementing the Certified GoGreen Specialist program, which has trained more than 80% of DHL Supply Chain employees. In addition, the company is implementing sustainable warehousing practices with the development of Thailand’s first fully renewable energy warehouse in 2025.
DHL Global Forwarding demonstrates more sustainable road freight across Asia through logistics optimization, multimodal transport, and electric vehicles. The EV fleet in Thailand is projected to eliminate 85,000 kilograms of CO2 emissions annually. DHL Global Forwarding leads sustainable logistics innovation through GoGreen Plus, offering carbon emission reduction options via sustainable marine and aviation fuels, enabling customers to easily reduce their main haul carbon emissions across all trade lanes.
DHL eCommerce has deployed electric vehicles on shuttle routes between depots in Bangkok and urban areas. The company plans to introduce electric linehaul trucks for short-distance routes in Q2 2025. In addition, DHL eCommerce aims to convert 50% of its owned Bangkok last-mile fleet to EVs within the next two years.

VinFast’s electric SUV is earning loyalty from Vietnam to the Middle East by fitting seamlessly into real lives, long drives, and daily routines.
HAI PHONG, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 16 January 2026 – VinFast’s VF 8 is traveling well, winning over drivers across markets with everyday performance, thoughtful design, and uncommon peace of mind.
A VF 8 owner belong to a relatively exclusive, self-selecting club that its maker VinFast have built across the globe. It is the kind of club formed less by marketing than by shared curiosity and a willingness to move early. Owners tend to recognize one another not by badges or decals, but by the confidence that comes from having made a deliberate choice.
The VF 8 holds a special place for VinFast. It was the brand’s first fully international offering, the vehicle tasked with introducing a young Vietnamese automaker to demanding markets abroad. As a result, the car was designed to travel well. Styled in collaboration with Pininfarina, the VF 8 favors clean proportions over visual noise. Beneath the surface, its dual-motor all-wheel-drive system and 402 horsepower provide performance that feels reassuring.
In Vietnam, the VF 8 has appealed to high-mileage drivers like Nguyen Phuong Hoang Dung, a Ho Chi Minh City-based construction project manager who covers about 5,000 kilometers a month. “When you drive that much, comfort and stability directly affect your health, your mindset, and how well you work,” he said. Having spent years with gasoline cars, he switched to the VF 8 in August 2025, drawn by its smooth throttle response and calm, seamless acceleration. Now, with more than 20,000 kilometers behind him, he said, “The more I drive it, the more confident I am that choosing the VF 8 was the right decision.”
As the VF 8 expanded into North America and Europe, it increasingly settled into a simpler role: a dependable everyday vehicle. Robert, who has driven his for more than a year and a half, said it has been “a great vehicle,” adding that “you will not find another this size in the price range they offered it.” For Jonathan, the VF 8 fits neatly into daily routines. “For us it’s a city vehicle with short rides every day, and it answers our needs,” he said. “Very comfortable, impressive performance, good in snow, and strong overall.”
In the Middle East, the VF 8’s appeal sharpens as VinFast pairs the car with ownership benefits that are rare in the segment, including complimentary maintenance coverage for five years or 100,000 kilometers. These are not small details in markets where peace of mind often matters as much as design. “The maintenance package made the decision easy,” said an owner in Dubai. “You know exactly where you stand.”
The idea of a VF 8 community is beginning to take shape. Across markets, it connects drivers in Vietnam, Europe, North America, and the Middle East through a shared understanding of what modern electric ownership can be. Thoughtful design. Capable performance. A clear push toward sustainability without asking drivers to compromise their routines.
For those inside the club, the VF 8 is not simply a statement car. No, something even better. A car that makes sense, day after day, in very different parts of the world.
