NZ courier firm ready for new competitors

Posted by | Nov 26, 2004 | |

An increasing number of express parcels are whizzing around New Zealand’s buoyant economy, generating strong profit growth for newly listed courier group Freightways. The main competitor to NZ Post yesterday unveiled a better-than-expected 42 per cent rise in net profit for the first four months of the financial year. Freightways shares surged 15 cents, or 6%, to a record 285, nearly double its float price of 160 set before it listed last September. Chairman Wayne Boyd told the group’s annual meeting economic conditions were favourable and trading had been consistently strong. Freightways’ existing customers were increasing volumes and its three courier brands — New Zealand Couriers, Post Haste and Castle Parcels — were winning market share from NZ Post.

Competition in New Zealand forces truckers’ alliance

Posted by | Oct 30, 2004 | |

Mainfreight is dumping NZ Post as its express freight courier operator and getting together with Freightways. A strategic alliance, disclosed yesterday, combines the country’s biggest mover of loads of freight with one of the country’s two big express parcel movers. The alliance is a response to hotter competition. Toll Holdings of Australia has expanded slowly into the express parcel market here and New Zealand Post, Freightways’ main competitor, plans to merge its express freight business with Deutsche Post’s unit DHL. “This is about two businesses with good strengths getting together,” said Freightways’ chief executive Dean Bracewell. A merger is not on the agenda. Mainfreight’s express parcel needs will now go to Freightways’ unit New Zealand Couriers.
