Off Beat: DHL Wins Package Race, UPS Still In Transit
Meghhan Marco writes on The Consumerist:
Every year Georgia Tech's Supply Chain and Logistics Institute holds a shipping race to see who can deliver packages to remote locations the quickest. Unbeknownst to the companies, they're competing in the Olympics of shipping.More here.
This year DHL won delivering first to 3 of the 5 locations, and second to the remaining 2.
Doesn't the DHL guy look happy? He was the first to Tikrit, Iraq. That's a Black Hawk helicopter behind him. Sadly, UPS never even made it.
The contest write up has some pretty hilarious commentary... highlights inside.
