Germany's DHL Group to Step Up Investments in Growth Push
By Dominic Chopping
German logistics company DHL Group said it would invest in growth efforts as global trade continues to expand, despite geopolitical uncertainty.
The company said trade flows are shifting and that, in line with its strategy, it is further developing services to address changing logistical needs.
DHL said Thursday that the focus is on regions and sectors where it expects particularly dynamic growth in customer demand, including life sciences & healthcare, new energy, e-commerce and data-center logistics.
"We remain focused on providing our customers with high service quality and sufficient capacity," said Chief Executive Tobias Meyer. "That is why we are stepping up investments in our network and in new logistics capabilities needed to tap into the markets of the future."
DHL last month upgraded its outlook for 2026 on the back of positive earnings momentum, particularly in its DHL Express business, and prospects of a strong seasonal peak in the last quarter of the year.
It expects earnings before interest and taxes to surpass 7 billion euros, or $7.86 billion, with free cash flow excluding net mergers and acquisitions of more than 3.2 billion euros and capital expenditure at around 3.6 billion euros.
