SEOUL, Nov. 22 (Korea Bizwire) — Hanjin Logistics Corp., the logistics unit of South Korea’s Hanjin Group, said Friday it has partnered with DHL Supply Chain Korea to strengthen their domestic logistics networks and services.
The partnership is aimed at attracting new clients, leveraging each other’s expertise and knowledge, and jointly exploring business opportunities, the company said in a statement.
Hanjin and DHL plan to strengthen synergies across key industries, including pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, consumer retail, automotive and green logistics initially in the domestic market, it said.
