GLS Announces Expansion into Serbia
GLS, a leading parcel service provider, announces its expansion into Serbia. The move is part of the company’s goal to further expand its footprint and strengthens its position in Eastern Europe.
Serbia continues to experience a major boom in e-commerce, with a growing need in the region for a wider range of delivery options. Through its strong, international network, GLS offers a reliable logistics alternative to the market, providing high quality services already appreciated by more than 250,000 customers in Europe and North America.
Senders and receivers in Serbia can benefit from GLS’ renowned and convenient solutions such as FlexDeliveryServices, which makes it easy for the recipient to adapt the parcel delivery to his needs.
With its central hub in Belgrade and three depots in major cities, Novi Sad, Niš and Kragujevac, GLS now delivers parcels to every address in Serbia and can connect its customers to international locations.
Gergely Farkas, Area Manager for the East Europe Region, said:
– With this expansion into Serbia, we strengthen our presence in the Eastern European region and aim to foster growth opportunities. We truly believe that our customers in Serbia will benefit from a new reliable logistics alternative in their market and the same high-quality service for which GLS is renowned.
