TNT Express delivers for French e-retailer Cdiscount.com
TNT Express France has won a contract to deliver goods ordered online from leading e-retailer Cdiscount.com. The deal extends the operator’s home delivery activities in France.
Since September, TNT Express France has been delivering goods within 24 hours for the sales portal, which claims to be France’s largest e-commerce website.
Under the cooperation, consumers buying goods on Cdiscount.com can select TNT as their transport provider and have their items delivered direct to their home. Deliveries are made within 24 hours of the order being processed, with deliveries made Monday to Saturday between 08:00 and 13:00. Cdiscount.com customers can track their goods through the website.
If the consumer is not at home, the item is made available on the same day at the nearest Relais Colis pick-up point and the customer is informed by SMS. TNT cooperates with this parcel drop-off and pick-up network, which works on a shop-in-shop retail basis and has 3,800 outlets across France.
The e-retail website was set up in 1998. It has 40 online shops, 5.2 million customers and more than 25,000 orders per day.
