Blue Dart logistic services have reduced the retail tariff prices by 25 per cent, aiding the country in its fight against the coronavirus crisis. Blue Dart Express, part of Deutsche Post DHL Group (DPDHL), operates six dedicated Boeing 757 freighters each with a capacity of 34 tonnes. These aircraft have been operating during the lockdown period across Indian cities enabling essential shipments like medical equipment and pharmaceutical products reach the first responders in hospitals and medical institutions with the promise of secure and timely deliveries.
‘In order to provide customers with a solution for their shipping needs during these trying times and to further use our Air Express Logistics service to keep the essential supply chain continuity, Blue Dart Express has reduced its Retail Tariff Prices by 25 per cent. This will be applicable to all local retail customers as well as all MSMEs,” the company said in a statement.
Ketan Kulkarni, CMO and Head Business Development, said ‘Blue Dart’s ‘FIGHT COVID-19 PRICE (FC19-P)’ is a unique initiative and our duty towards the nation in these times of crisis. We have always stepped up as a ‘FIRST IN LAST OUT’ organisation whenever a disaster has struck the nation. Our aircraft are the lifeline of the nation & our nation is grappling with a situation never experienced earlier & this has a widespread impact on the economy. Businesses across sectors and geographies are disrupted due to mobility suspension.’
