Moving For Warmer Climate, Better Deal
DHL
Airways, Inc. on Tuesday announced the relocation of its corporate
headquarters to Miami (FL) from Chicago. Effective May 15, 2003,
the company will assume corporate operations at One Biscayne Tower
in downtown Miami.
"Chicago is truly a 'city that works' and it has afforded DHL
Airways a great business climate to grow and prosper in," said
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John H. Dasburg. "However, we
have restructured the management team for DHL Airways and given the
geographic locations of several of our members, it just makes good
sense to relocate our headquarters location."
"Florida's unparalleled support for growing businesses, as well
as the economic and geographic benefits offered by the City of
Miami and Miami-Dade County, made the choice to move our operations
clear and simple," said Dasburg. "Governor Bush, Mayor Alex Pinelas
and Mayor Manny Diaz deserve a great deal of credit for making
Florida and Miami an attractive place to do business."
"We're
excited to have DHL Airways as the newest corporate resident of
Florida," said Governor Bush. "Their decision to move is evidence
of an extremely supportive business community in South Florida, a
resilient economy, and a state that values innovation, corporate
excellence and entrepreneurial spirit."
Dasburg noted that the state's low cost of living, highly
educated workforce, and vibrant, multi-cultural business community
were key factors for DHL Airways. "The move to Miami is good not
only for our business, it is good for our employees and their
families," said Dasburg.
All of the Company's Chicago-based employees will be offered
opportunities to continue their careers with the airline at another
DHL Airways location.
