Friday, February 19, 2016DHL Global Forwarding may be sold or spun off by German parent group Deutsche Post, with Japan Post Holdings a possible buyer, claims news agency Reuters, citing “two people familiar with the matter”.
Deutsche Post and Japan Post, which owns top-20 forwarder Toll Global Forwarding, both declined to comment.
