Competition for the Norwegian Postal Service
The Norwegian Postal Service (Posten Norge) will be facing competition after several Norwegian newspapers have established the company Mediapost which will be distributing newspapers, magazines and books.
Aftenposten, the Labour Press and Orkla Media have taken the initiative to form the new distribution company, and will utilize their own distribution network for the new company.
According to the National Association of Media Companies (MBL), the reason for establishing the new company is the announced increase in the cost of mailing papers through the regular postal service.
