Our transport partners
Our transport partners handle the last mile and are the face of GLS to the public.
They play one of the most important roles in GLS’s transport and logistics operations.
Every day, they do their best to ensure that parcels reach recipients on time and safely.
We are committed to fostering long-term partnerships and providing high-quality transport services.
That is why we focus on long-term cooperation to help make parcel delivery processes more efficient.
A partnership based on trust
Together we are stronger: in order to ensure successful and long-term cooperation, GLS Portugal is in continuous dialogue with its transport partners. Everything is said to each other about the structure of cooperation. This is how we optimize processes and exchange information about possible improvements, as well as previous successes.
Invest in delivery processes
GLS is continually committed to optimizing delivery processes and procedures – with various measures and a total of well over 50 million euros across the Group in recent years. This includes investments in equipment, for example: special tools that facilitate the work done by transport partners and their delivery drivers.
With new depots, expansion and modernization of the existing depots at GLS, we are constantly strengthening the network and shortening transport routes. GLS also invests in training, communication and new services and solutions such as FlexDeliveryService.
