New Date-Definitive Delivery Service Will Be
Available to 93% of ZIP Codes Across Quiet Platforms’ Nationwide
Network
Quiet Platforms, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Eagle
Outfitters Inc. (NYSE: AEO), today announced that it has launched a
partnership with global logistics leader DHL eCommerce Solutions to
offer a new delivery service available exclusively to retailers and
brands in the Quiet Platforms network. The date-definitive delivery
service is slated to reach 93% of postal codes across Quiet
Platforms’ national network without requiring any custom
integration or lengthy setup. Under the partnership, the two
companies will also collaborate to develop new delivery services
for future rollout.
“DHL is known and respected worldwide for both the quality and
variety of its service offerings,” said Shekar Natarajan, EVP,
Chief Supply Chain Officer of AEO and head of Quiet Platforms. “As
we continue to onboard new customers and scale the volume of
parcels running through our network, DHL eCommerce Solutions will
be a key partner in ensuring we are providing the best possible
delivery experience to end customers—including scheduled home
delivery for the exact day that is most convenient for them.”
The service is the latest example of Quiet Platforms taking a
technology-first approach to logistics, utilizing smart sortation
and planning intelligence to achieve deep carrier injection. The
collaborative solution provides retailers and brands in the Quiet
Platforms network with access to affordable last-mile services that
reduce costs while delivering a superior customer experience.
“Quiet Platforms’ innovative sharing model is redefining
efficiency, sustainability and service across the supply chain,
including last-mile delivery,” said Lyle Sanderson, Regional Vice
President of Sales, DHL eCommerce Solutions. “We’re thrilled to
partner with the company to offer our unique, date-definitive
delivery service to retailers and brands in the Quiet Platforms
network, and we look forward to co-developing new services with the
team in the future.”
This new partnership is the latest step in Quiet Platforms’
strategy of building out a nationwide footprint in parcel delivery
to service its retail and brand customers and level the playing
field for enterprises of all sizes. The company recently announced
it has expanded its fulfillment capabilities with the activation of
a new, multifunctional, connected fulfillment facility in Atlanta,
which was launched in under 60 days.
