DHL Group and the e-commerce marketplace Temu have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to deepen their collaboration, aiming to better support local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in both established and emerging markets like Eastern Europe and the Middle East. The agreement emphasizes fostering compliant trade and sustainable practices.
DHL Group will leverage its logistics expertise, including multimodal transportation solutions, to provide more efficient and sustainable supply chain services for Temu. DHL’s extensive network and global presence position it as an ideal partner to support Temu’s growth.
“Through our various DHL divisions, we are already providing a wide range of logistics services and solutions, including air freight and last-mile delivery,” stated Katja Busch, CCO and Head of DHL Customer Solutions & Innovation. “We are excited to elevate our partnership with Temu to the next level. By combining our logistics capabilities with Temu’s innovative platform, we can create more efficient, compliant and convenient solutions that benefit both consumers and local businesses in the markets we serve.”
As part of the MoU, DHL Group will support Temu’s operations in Europe, including its local-to-local model. This model enables local merchandise partners to sell on Temu’s platform and facilitates local fulfillment, with Temu expecting up to 80% of its total sales in Europe to come from this initiative. Additionally, the e-commerce platform will enable European-based sellers to reach global markets, particularly empowering SMEs to scale their businesses. DHL will also assist Temu in expanding its presence in e-commerce markets across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) regions.
“This letter of intent marks a significant step in our partnership with DHL Group,” said Qin Sun, co-founder of Temu. “Its extensive network and logistics capabilities will help support our mission to increase consumer access to affordable products and help increase growth opportunities for sellers.”
