UK Mail MD talks of transforming the market place
At the recent IEA postal conference, Guy Buswell of Business Post reported that UK Mail was positioning its business class service between first and second class. They will sort to the 120 mail centres or the 1400 delivery centres, collect between 1600 and 1930 and deliver to the centres between 0830 and 12 noon next day. There will be some interesting new joint marketing initiatives with Royal Mail and there will be penalty clauses in the contract relationship with Royal Mail. On the parcels side he reported a 50% increase in home delivery and that Business Post carries out 50% of FedEx’ collection and deliveries in the UK.
