Blue Dart Express announces price hike from January 1, 2025
Customers who sign up between October 1 and December 31, 2024, will be exempt from the price increase.
Blue Dart Express has announced a general price increase (GPI) effective January 1, 2025. The average increase will range from 9% to 12%, varying based on product types and shipping profiles, according to an official release from Blue Dart Express.
The pricing adjustments for 2025, which include inflationary adjustments and cost rationalisation, are designed to partly cover spiraling long-term costs, such as rising input costs to operations, including but not limited to airline operating costs and infrastructure costs, while also supporting customers with customised and seamless deliveries, mentions the official release.
“As we step into 2025, we remain committed to delivering exceptional, reliable services. This price adjustment is essential for sustaining our operational excellence while continuing to offer solutions centred on the needs of our stakeholders. In conjunction with our annual price adjustment, we are also mobilising investments to expand our network, adopt the latest technologies, and enhance our service offerings. We are primed to capitalise on new opportunities and deliver even greater value to our customers and stakeholders,” says Balfour Manuel, Managing Director, Blue Dart.
