Survive The Recession With Cheaper Postage

Sept. 17, 2009 - PRLog -- Many businesses are feeling the effects of the current challenging economic climate.  The Industry Watch report by accountants and business advisers BDO Stoy Hayward said a record 36,200 businesses - almost a hundred every day - would fail this year, and an even greater number in 2010.  Many firms are seeking to cut costs and become more efficient and now Parcel2Ship, the parcel delivery experts known for their great rates on Parcelforce Worldwide and DHL courier services, are highlighting the savings on postage costs that businesses can make during this recession.

The postal market in the UK is worth an estimated seven billion pounds and there are an estimated twenty two billion items posted annually to the UK’s twenty seven million addresses.  This is in addition to any European or worldwide postage or parcel deliveries that businesses have to make.  The total cost of postage to companies is therefore significant and one of the areas in which they can look to cut costs in order to survive the fallout of the “credit crunch”.

Howard Hughes, chief executive of Parcel2Ship who specialize in courier services and cheap parcel delivery, said, “The cost of parcel delivery in the UK and overseas is a major consideration for many businesses, particularly those who sell their products primarily by mail order or through the internet.  With hundreds of firms going out of business every week there has never been a more important time for companies to review their postage costs as there can be some exceptional savings to be made.  These savings might well be the difference a company needs to survive the current recession.”

Parcel2Ship offer a wide range of document and parcel delivery services both within the United Kingdom and overseas.  Wherever your business needs to send a parcel, Parcel2Ship have a cost-effective and high quality solution.

Mr Hughes added, “With our panel of expert delivery services we can tailor a solution for businesses to ensure they are maximizing the quality of their service whilst also minimizing their postage costs.  By reviewing their current postage and parcel delivery arrangements we can help businesses save money which may well be vital to their survival.”
