Jameel Motors partners with DHL for end-to-end logistics of Farizon electric vans
DHL provides an end-to-end solution by combining the expertise and capabilities of its Supply Chain and Forwarding divisions. DHL Global Forwarding will manage the customs clearance and management of the vehicles and parts on entry into the UK. All Farizon vehicles coming into Felixstowe will then be collected by DHL Supply Chain, taken to its container facility in Stanton for checks, then transported to its finished vehicle site in Peterborough.
Jameel Motors UK has appointed DHL to handle finished vehicle and aftermarket logistics for the all-new born-electric Farizon SV large van in the UK. Indeed, the electric vans were officially launched at CV Show in Birmingham, held last week. Jameel Motors distributes the electric vans of the Chinese manufacturer, part of the Geely Group, within the UK territory.

The agreement between Jameel and DHL
Additionally, DHL Supply Chain will be responsible for the Farizon press and demo fleet, preparing vehicles based on custom specifications and managing delivery. For dealership and customer orders, DHL will manage pre-delivery inspections, software updates, and white glove delivery service, applying the same expertise, speed and professionalism to the commercial vehicles market that it offers across passenger vehicle contracts. Aftermarket support will operate out of DHL’s facility in Stanton and will serve a growing Farizon dealer network, as well as direct customers across the country.
“As a new brand to the UK and with a new benchmark for the electric van market, we recognise the imperative of leveraging the expertise and experience of the very best partners. Having DHL’s expertise, extensive network and facilities as well as its commitment to quality is crucial to the success of our launch and long-term operations”, said Kate McLaren, Head of Marketing and Sales Operations at Jameel Motors UK.
