Where does the name DHL come from?
These are the first letters of the last names of the three company founders, Adrian Dalsey, Larry Hillblom and Robert Lynn.
In 1969, just months after the world had marvelled at Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon, the three partners took another small step that would have a profound impact on the way the world does business.
The founders began to personally ship papers by airplane from San Francisco to Honolulu, beginning customs clearance of the ship's cargo before the actual arrival of the ship and dramatically reducing waiting time in the harbour.
