DHL Freight is expanding its network in Germany: In addition to the new location in Erlensee near Frankfurt am Main and the takeover in Gochsheim near Würzburg, a new freight terminal in Mettmann has now been added. DHL Freight acquired the site near Düsseldorf on July 1.
For us, the new facility in Mettmann represents an important opportunity for strategic expansion, especially in the automotive business. At the same time, we are strengthening our groupage network, which will enable us to offer our customers an even more efficient service as transport volumes increase.

On a total site area of 26,700 m², the automotive services offered by DHL Freights in particular will be expanded in the future. 48 gates and an access ramp as well as an 8,000 m² handling and storage area will provide ideal conditions for dealing with the increasing volume of orders and logistics from major automobile manufacturers.
