DHL Supply Chain, a division of Deutsche Post DHL, is to open a new 30,000 square meter distribution centre in the Cheb logistics park and create up to 200 jobs there. The centre is designed for Estée Lauder, a manufacturer and distributor of cosmetics. The launch of logistics centre operations including customs services is scheduled for the beginning of 2018. In the first year, more than 100 employees will work in the warehouse and the number of workers should almost double over the next three years.
