Blue Dart Express or Blue Dart is an Indian Logistics Company providing courier delivery services[1][2][3][4] headquartered in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. It is a subsidiary of Blue Dart Aviation, and operates in South Asian countries.

In 2002, Blue Dart had a business alliance with DHL Express and on 8 November 2004, DHL Express invested €120 million in it, and since then has been a major shareholder in the company.[5][6][7]

Background

Blue Dart was founded by Tushar Jani (chairman) and his friends Khushroo Dubash and Clyde Cooper in November 1983.[8][9] In the early years, Blue Dart had a business agreement with Gelco Express International, UK, for the operations of international air package express services from India.[10]

In 2010-11, it introduced ′cash on delivery (COD)′ to customers, as an additional payment option for its courier services. Khushroo Dubash initiated studies on a "Hub and Spoke" concept for the company's distribution networking.[11]
