Gulf Air has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with DHL to explore opportunities of commercial, technical and cargo collaboration.
Members of the executive managements of Gulf Air and DHL attended the event, as Captain Waleed AlAlawi, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Gulf Air and Nour Suliman, Chief Executive Officer of DHL Express MENA, signed the MoU during a signing ceremony held at the national carrier’s headquarters.
“We are always keen to explore ways to enhance our commercial partnerships, and to get involved in every related sector of the aviation industry," said Captain AlAlawi. "Logistics is an integral part of our day-to-day operations, and we are extremely impressed with services provided by DHL. We look forward to embarking on mutually fruitful relations with this world renowned courier.”
“The aviation industry has its eyes set on recovery following the difficult year we had in 2020," said Suliman. "The air ways are opening up as COVID-19 restrictions gradually ease. With this in mind, we are delighted to sign this Memorandum of Understanding with Gulf Air to set the stage for logistic services between Gulf Air and DHL and enhance our relations with one of the favourite airlines in the region.”
Gulf Air currently serves its network with a combination of wide and narrow body fleet of Boeing and Airbus aircraft. With over 400,000 staff in over 220 countries and territories, DHL delivers around 1,614,000,000 parcels per year, and remains one of the most successful couriers in the world.
