One World Express intends to fill the service gap left by DHL eCommerce – formally one of India’s largest cross-border logistics service providers – and ensure that all Indian merchants can continue to ship products to customers all over the world with minimal disruption to operations.
One World Express’ entrance into India means that merchants will soon have access to its internationalshipping platform, Ship2world. Powered by One World Express’s innovative Smarttrack technology, Ship2world’s platform allows merchants to access hundreds of shipping options and optimise routing.
Ship2world also connects to vendors’ online shops. This means that any sale made automatically notifies the platform of a shipping order and connects the merchant with multiple courier options.
Combining competitive tariffs with the latest tracking technology, the Ship2world will support India’s eCommerce businesses, particularly smaller vendors, by providing them with the tools to increase sales, and in turn profits, by accessing cost-effective shipping solutions worldwide.
One World Express will be operational in India as of 22nd November.
