Helping Families Stay Connected Across Borders
For Indians who live away from their families, festivals can bring strong emotions. Raksha Bandhan holds special meaning because the festival celebrates the relationship between siblings.
A rakhi may look small, but it can carry great emotional value. The same applies to a gift, handwritten note or festive package. Sending these items internationally helps families continue their traditions even when they cannot celebrate together in person.
DHL Express created Rakhi Express to support these family connections. The offer combines a shipping discount with DHL Express’ international delivery network, helping customers send festive packages across borders.
“Raksha Bandhan is one of those occasions where distance can be felt a little more. A rakhi or a gift sent across the world may be a small package, but it carries a lot of emotion. At DHL Express, we see this every year. Families across India continue to find ways to celebrate with loved ones who live far away,” said Sandeep Juneja, Vice President of Commercial for India, DHL Express.
Juneja said DHL Express wants Rakhi Express to make these connections easier. The company aims to support customers with its international network and a flat 50% discount on international shipments from India.
Customers can use the service to send a traditional rakhi, a personal gift or a simple reminder of home to someone living abroad.
