This new service offers myriad benefits, such as a proactive notification system and suitability for delivering to various pick-up locations. With this offering, GLS has created the ideal cross-border B2C delivery solution that goes beyond standard delivery services.
International ShopDeliveryService
GLS strives to provide its customers with a reliable, high-quality service. By using the International ShopDeliveryService, parcels up to 20kg can be delivered to more than 33,000 pick-up points throughout Europe, ensuring that a delivery point is always close by. Due to the convenient opening hours of GLS’ Parcel Shops and pick-up locations, recipients can use their time efficiently and decide when and where the parcel will be picked up, without having to worry about missing a parcel at a specific delivery time.

It no longer matters where their customers are based – GLS can offer the delivery solution that fits their needs. This enables senders to enhance their customer experience and service as well as increase their business offerings.
