GLS, which stands for General Logistics Systems, is a major European parcel delivery company with a history rooted in the consolidation of various regional courier services. The brand was officially founded in 1999 following the acquisition of German Parcel by Royal Mail. Today, it operates a vast network across Europe and North America, focusing on seamless B2B and B2C parcel logistics.

While the brand's operational roots are deeply tied to Germany through its predecessor 'German Parcel', the ultimate ownership lies with the British postal service. GLS manages its manufacturing of services—through sorting centers and delivery fleets—across dozens of countries to ensure local efficiency within its global infrastructure.
