Sagawa Express to enter registered mail business
Sagawa Express Co., a parcel delivery service firm, plans to enter the registered mail delivery business at the end of March 2003, company officials said Saturday. The move will allow the Kyoto-based company to expand its service by delivering credit cards and other confidential items as registered mail. The Ministry of Public Management, Home Affairs, Posts and Telecommunications is expected to allow parcel delivery companies to deliver such items as credit cards, checks and gift vouchers in line with the April 2003 launch of a public postal corporation, as part of its deregulation of the state-run postal service.
