Both companies aim to establish a strong partnership to support small and medium-sized webshops in the areas of e-fulfilment and online sales. Through the international expansion of <a href=\"https:\/\/gomonta.com\/en-gb\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"24\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Monta\u2019s logistics services<\/a>, DHL will be able to better cater to the specific needs of SMEs and smaller webshops, while Monta will be able to serve its rapidly growing customer base more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 1999, Monta has rapidly become one of the largest service providers in the field of e-commerce and e-fulfilment in the Netherlands. With 1000 employees and 17 fulfilment locations, the company processed 12 million e-commerce orders in 2021, generating an annual revenue of EUR&nbsp;100 million. Monta currently supports approximately 1800 rapidly growing small and medium-sized webshops and e-sellers, offering a range of software-based fulfilment services and warehouse management software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMonta, with its dedicated team of 1000 logistics specialists, holds a strong position in the e-commerce market. The company operates with proven processes and has an excellent track record of customer growth through the application of strategic advanced technologies such as AI, data science and collaborative robotics. Monta\u2019s aspirations for international expansion make it a perfect match for us. We will maintain Monta\u2019s current valued capabilities, expertise and culture while further developing them, allowing us to provide excellent customer-centric solutions in the rapidly growing e-commerce segment,\u201d said Oscar de Bok, CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhl.com\/nl-en\/home\/supply-chain.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DHL Supply Chain<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DHL, with its global and European operations and expertise in standardising and scaling logistics processes, will quickly complement Monta\u2019s optimal and flexible logistic expertise in e-fulfilment for small and medium-sized enterprises. The customers of both DHL and Monta will benefit from the best of both worlds \u2013 Monta\u2019s entrepreneurial spirit that defines their way of doing business, and DHL Supply Chain\u2019s strong international expertise, infrastructure and network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cWe want to roll out our successful business model outside the Netherlands, enabling our customers to expand internationally. Monta has recently taken its first steps across borders, resulting in international growth for several clients. The current transaction will further accelerate this development. For our people, this agreement also brings long-term career opportunities. We have been working with DHL for many years, and the two companies align well in terms of corporate culture. I am looking forward to seeing how the teams of Monta and DHL Supply Chain will shape this collaboration,\u201d said Edwin van der Ham, owner and CEO of Monta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese plans exemplify our commitment to <a href=\"https:\/\/gomonta.com\/en-gb\/cross-border-e-commerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"332\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">expanding our e-commerce activities in Euro<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/gomonta.com\/en-gb\/cross-border-e-commerce\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"332\">pe<\/a> and continuously providing our customers with the best fulfilment solutions.
