E-commerce sellers can drop off their parcels at any service point and ship to customers nationwide; consumers can choose a location and pick up their orders
DHL eCommerce has launched a network of ServicePoints in Thailand to enable e-commerce sellers to ship items nationwide and for online shoppers to pick up their orders.
Thai e-commerce sellers can now drop off their parcels at any one of the more than 200 locations and ship to their customers nationwide. Sellers can register with DHL eCommerce, deposit their parcels and have them processed within a short time, according to the company.
Similarly, consumers will be able to choose to pick up their orders from the very same locations in early 2018.
The ServicePoints are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and designed to maximise mobility for SMEs and micro-SMEs. Customers will receive shipment confirmation via SMS and email. Shipment track-and-trace, cash on delivery and shipment insurance services are also available.
Over 1,000 ServicePoints will be launched over the coming months.

There are over 50,000 sellers on marketplaces in Thailand and up to 20 million visits per day on top marketplaces. With a joint partnership between DHL eCommerce and marketplaces in Thailand, sellers can now drop off their parcels at selected ServicePoints or request for pickup.
“All research tells us that both the seller and shopper want more convenience and choice, a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach just doesn’t work, as such we will continue to offer more access points and make accessing the rapidly growing online segment easier and simpler,” said Kiattichai Pitpreecha, Managing Director, DHL eCommerce Thailand.
