Post Danmark in alliance with Deutsche Post
Post Danmark, the Danish post office, is holding talks with Deutsche Post, its German counterpart, regarding a collaboration agreement. Jacob Buksti, the Danish transport minister, has confirmed that the two are holding talks and that negotiations may be completed in only a few weeks time. Post Danmark will solve its problems from three weeks ago, when Posten of Sweden dashed Post Danmark’s hope of a Nordic parcel alliance by pulling out of Pan Nordic Logistics, the Scandinavian logistics company owned by the three Scandinavian post offices. Posten entered an alliance with La Poste of France instead.
According to Mr Buksti, The Danish and Norwegian post offices will enter alliances through Pan Nordic Logistics. An alliance with Deutsche Post would be at least as strong as Posten’s alliance with La Poste. Abstracted from Borsen in Danish. Copyright 2001 Financial Times Information, Dow Jones, Dialog.
