Amsterdam, 2 June 2022 – GLS, leading international parcel service provider, has signed the acquisition of French tech logistics company Tousfacteurs. The Paris-based last-mile delivery start-up, founded in 2015, specialises in developing digital and sustainable solutions to support its e-commerce offering. The acquisition of Tousfacteurs will enable GLS to further optimise the last mile customer experience and to strengthen its sustainable delivery services.

Today, GLS starts rolling out an international brand campaign. After last year’s brand refresh, GLS aims to set the next step in building its brand. With the campaign, created in collaboration with creative agency dentsuACHTUNG!, GLS demonstrates one of its most important characteristics: its personal approach towards parcel delivery.
