It's never just a parcel. It is passion and work. It is the fulfilment of desires.

As a partner of top teams and international events, we know exactly what is important to succeed. We deliver joy and enthusiasm - right into your own four walls.

GLS Sponsoring

We are cooperation partner of numerous projects. Sport in particular is close to our hearts as we agree with the Romans who recognized 2000 years ago: in a sound body one finds a sound mind. That is why we are involved in popular sports such as cycling or tennis, which bring joy and records to both amateur and professional athletes alike, but also sometimes push them to their limits.

Team-Vorarlberg

Team Vorarlberg

After a very successful last season, the professional cycling team from Vorarlberg has again set itself very ambitious goals this year.

We look forward to celebrating successes with "our" team again, coming out strong after defeats, improving constantly, fulfilling our dreams and, last but not least, providing joy and emotions.

Erste Bank Open 2023

This year GLS once again is partner of Austria's most prestigious tennis tournament. The ATP 500 tournament will take place in Vienna from October 21st to 29th and again offer a gathering of international tennis greats.

We look forward to a glittering tennis festival, which will offer the audience sport at its best.

Team Vorarlberg

- the family-run professional cycling team

From a family business to a top team - in just a few years Team Vorarlberg has developed into an internationally competitive professional ensemble. The family character has remained.

Like for us, team spirit, fair play and professionalism are immensely important for Team Vorarlberg.

Team Vorarlberg - our role models on the bike

The road as a link - Team Vorarlberg and GLS have been partners since season 2022.

Perhaps not obvious at first glance, we share the workplace with Team Vorarlberg: the roads on which we deliver our parcels from Monday to Friday are used by the cyclists on weekends to compete with the best of the best.

Since GLS is very committed to health issues and has therefore launched the #GLSbewegt initiative for its employees, it was and is only reasonable to have a successful cycling team as a partner. Team Vorarlberg is "our" team, whom we cheer during races, our motivator and the best confirmation one could have that teamwork leads to success.

The 2023 team

Cycling is teamwork. And as a team, Team Vorarlberg not only overcomes stages, but also its own limits. This year, team manager Thomas Kofler has once again formed a promising team.

With Lukas Meiler, Dominik Amann, Moran Vermeulen, Colin Stüssi, Oscar Cabedo, Pirmin Benz, Linus Stari, Nikolas Riegler, Laurin Nenning, Antoine Berlin, Jon Knolle, Lukas Rüegg and Peter Inauen, the dynamic team consists of youngsters as well as experienced cyclists who only aim for one thing: to get to the top.
