DHL Express Worldwide
How it all started
Adrian Dalsey, Larry Hillblom and Robert Lynn, three ambitious entrepreneurs from San Francisco, founded DHL in 1969 and started transporting customs documents by air. This drastically shortened the clearance time for freight shipments. While the first flights mainly took place between San Francisco and Honolulu, the network was later expanded to all corners of the world. Since 2013, DHL has been able to call itself the global market leader in international express delivery and logistics.
