| Sendle supports Australian small businesses with parcel deal
Courier service, Sendle, is teaming up with DHL eCommerce, a division of Deutsche Post DHL Group, to offer local businesses the ‘parcel to anywhere’ in the lead-up to Christmas.
Sendle customers can reportedly ship 250g parcels from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth to over 220 countries and territories worldwide for the flat rate of $13.45.
The offer, according to Sendle, further levels the playing field for small dropshipping businesses that will benefit from lower international export costs and greater access to overseas customers, helping them compete on the global stage this Christmas.
Sendle CEO and Co-founder, James Chin-Moody, wants to see Australian small businesses reap more benefits from international opportunities.
“We are living in a global economy where small businesses sell far beyond their own backyard,” said Chin-Moody.
“Australian businesses are in a prime position to enter overseas markets, with many international economies growing, the AUD is sinking closer to $0.70USD, and international shipping timeframes shrinking. Yet local small businesses still only account for 0.5 per cent of the value of total exports, a sign that the full global potential of online retail is yet to be realised Down Under.
“At Sendle, we want to level the playing field by unlocking the power of big business logistics for those at the small end of town. We’re doing that through affordable pricing, convenient door-to-door delivery, and industry-leading customer experience that will allow small business owners to save time, money and a trip to the post office, as they enter the busiest retail period of the year,” he said.
