DHL Authorized Reseller
Direct DHL Express rates through an official partnership.
DHL's Public Rates Were Built for Someone Else's Budget
DHL's retail rate card is a starting point for negotiation — not the final price. But most businesses don't know that, so they pay it. The businesses that get better rates either ship millions of packages a year, or they have a direct reseller relationship. Now you can have the second option.
Retail DHL rates are full price
The rate you get when you sign up for a standard DHL account is DHL's public list price. High-volume shippers never pay this — and neither should you.
Volume requirements block access to real pricing
DHL's negotiated pricing tiers require shipment volumes most small and mid-market businesses can't hit on their own — so they're locked out permanently.
Carrier optimization gets ignored
Most businesses treat DHL as a single line item rather than one lane in a wider carrier mix. Without active optimization, international parcels keep going out at retail.
The process, top to bottom.
We review your international shipping profile
Share a recent invoice plus your destinations and package mix. We identify where DHL fits in your wider carrier optimization plan — and what you're currently leaving on the table.
We map your volume to our reseller pricing
We run your shipment profile against our negotiated DHL rate schedule to show you exactly what you'd pay — and what you're currently overpaying.
You ship DHL through our partnership
Setup is fast. You continue using DHL — same tracking, same service levels, same global network — at our authorized reseller pricing.
The deliverables, in plain English.
Direct DHL partnership
Our rates come from a direct authorized reseller agreement with DHL — not a chain of intermediaries. One partnership, one point of contact, full DHL service.
220+ countries and territories
DHL Express covers more of the world than any other carrier. One relationship gives you global reach.
Same service, better pricing
Your packages still ship via DHL Express with the same transit times, tracking, and delivery guarantees. The only thing that changes is what you pay.
Scales from 50 to 5,000+ parcels per month
Whether you're shipping 50 or 5,000 parcels a month, our reseller agreement covers your volume without requiring you to hit unreachable minimums.
Priority support through our reseller channel
As a reseller client, you get access to DHL support through our account — faster resolution than a standard DHL business account.
Plugs into wider carrier optimization
Add DHL through Kadima alongside your existing carriers. International parcels move onto DHL while domestic stays on your current carrier mix — optimized as one strategy.
Every month you wait, the meter keeps running.
Most clients see meaningful savings within the first invoice cycle. The audit itself is free — the only thing you're risking is finding out you've been overpaying. Then you decide what to do with the number.
Who this service fits best.
Cross-border DTC brands
If 20%+ of your orders ship outside the US, DHL reseller pricing usually moves the international line more than anything else can.
50–5,000 parcels / month
Too small for DHL's enterprise tier, too big for retail rates. The reseller agreement was built for exactly this gap.
B2B exporters
Sample shipments, replacement parts, and small-batch B2B exports go through DHL at our rates instead of retail.
What people ask before signing up.
What does 'authorized DHL reseller' actually mean? →
Kadima has a direct contractual relationship with DHL as an authorized reseller. We've negotiated our own rate schedule with DHL based on the combined volume across our client base, and we pass those rates through to clients shipping on our agreement.
How do Kadima's DHL rates compare to what I get going to DHL directly? →
DHL's direct business accounts get rates based on their individual volume. Our reseller agreement is based on the combined volume of all our clients, which puts us in a significantly higher pricing tier. The exact difference depends on your shipping profile — the free audit shows you the side-by-side.
Do I still get DHL Express tracking and service guarantees? →
Yes. You're still shipping via DHL Express — the same network, same transit times, same tracking system, same money-back guarantee on eligible services. The reseller relationship affects pricing, not service.
What volume do I need to qualify? →
We work with businesses shipping as few as 50 parcels per month. You don't need to hit a volume threshold to access our reseller pricing. That's the point — we aggregate volume across our client base so you get the benefit of scale without needing it yourself.
Is there a cost to get started? →
No. Our free shipping audit includes a DHL rate comparison at no cost or commitment. We show you exactly what you'd pay before you decide to move anything.
