DHL eCommerce Signs Multi-Year Exclusive Deal with USPS Worth Billions to Strengthen U.S. Last-Mile Delivery

On May 29, DHL eCommerce, a division of the DHL Group, announced the signing of a new multi-year exclusive cooperation agreement with the United States Postal Service (USPS), with the total contract value estimated to exceed $10 billion. DHL eCommerce will leverage USPS's nationwide 'last-mile' parcel delivery network to handle the final leg of delivery for the growing volume of cross-border import small parcels and domestic U.S. e-commerce shipments, aiming to further enhance delivery speed and cost competitiveness in the North American market. This collaboration not only reflects DHL's deepening strategic layout in the North American e-commerce logistics landscape but also continues the model of deep, strategic commercial partnerships between USPS and major parcel carriers. For cross-border sellers utilizing small parcel, dedicated line, and overseas warehouse drop-shipping services on U.S. routes, it is advisable to monitor subsequent optimizations in delivery speed and pricing for DHL eCommerce products and evaluate the possibility of switching to or supplementing with this channel accordingly.
