DHL Express opens Barwa facility

The QAR1.6bn Barwa development, a thriving new community located between the Doha International Airport and Wakra, contains residential units, a health club, an international school for 900 students, ample parking, green spaces, parks, playground, a neighborhood centre, a mosque, a medical clinic, a 4000 sqm shopping plaza and several restaurants.

"This new office solidifies our commitment to be close to all our loyal customers in Qatar. We now have facilities across the State and are proud to be the fastest Express Company in Qatar, offering the best delivery time," said Nael Attiyat, Country Manager, DHL Express Qatar.

The recently added DHL aircraft to its regional air fleet meets the increasing demand to connect Doha with the Americas and cut back on transit time as the Qatari capital continues to grow its business ties with the rest of the world. This new office also cuts back on delivery time into the local market as the first shipments will be received at 8am instead of previously being 9:15am.

"The core of our business is time. The more we expand and invest in our network the more we are able to continue to serve our customers at the efficiency level they expect from DHL," commented Nour Suliman, CEO, DHL Express MENA, at the opening.

"This new office is between the airport and Al Wakra, bringing us closer to our customers outside of Doha and to everyone who depends on DHL."
