Case Study: DPD Logistics achieves award-winning employee engagement and a fully connected workforce with Beekeeper

Congratulations to DPD Logistics for Winning the Golden Headset Award

DPD, a Swiss parcel company with 12 depots, 400 pick‑up shops and around 900 employees, faced a decentralized, multilingual workforce where most staff were on the road and only office employees had email access. To connect all employees and improve operations, DPD selected Beekeeper and rolled out the Beekeeper employee app (with inline translation) in February 2019 to meet goals like knowledge sharing and strengthening team spirit.

Beekeeper provided real‑time, 360° communication across locations and languages, enabling news, surveys, photos and peer recognition to be shared company‑wide; some depots now communicate exclusively via the app. Adoption reached nearly every employee, employee bonding increased, and within 10 months DPD’s internal communication reforms earned the Golden Headset Award in the “employee focus” category—an outcome driven by Beekeeper’s platform.
