DUBAI,
UAE�-�Media OutReach�-�May 1, 2019 - DHL,
the leading global brand in the logistics industry has launched Saloodo! in the
Middle East, to provide a digital platform that connects shippers and transport
providers for road freight needs within the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

�

Introduced for the first time
outside of Europe, Tobias Maier, CEO of Saloodo! in the
Middle East said, "Customer satisfaction is the driving force of every commercial decision
that we make and digitalization underpins our approach to continually deliver
on that. Saloodo! has enjoyed much success in
Europe and we believe that it will plug the digital gap in logistics technology
to accurately match shippers' needs and transport providers' offerings in the Middle
East as well."

�

Saloodo! simplifies
road freight processes by matching shippers to transport providers, introduces
transparency with its tracking, quoting tools and straight-forward reporting
system, and enhances efficiency by optimizing routes, cargo and time. With
this, carriers can maximize their truck load for greater efficiency and look to
reduce their carbon footprint -- which is in support of DHL's aim to reduce all
logistics-related carbon emissions to zero by 2050. All contractual
relationships will be organized via the existing local DHL entity thereby
providing trust and peace of mind to carriers and
shippers alike.

�

"Even though the
UAE is one of the largest logistics markets in the Gulf Cooperation Council
(GCC), there remain untapped opportunities with economic diversification and
several road infrastructure investments underway. Equally, DHL's deep expertise
in the region and wide portfolio of service offerings will support the
successful deployment of Saloodo! in the UAE, and ultimately in the Gulf region,"
he added.

�

Saloodo! was launched
in 2017 in Germany, to connect companies and transport providers within Germany
or from Germany throughout Europe. Since then, the service has grown to involve
more than 18,000 shippers and over 7,000 carriers with more than 250,000 trucks
travelling to over 25 European countries.
