Скачать или смотреть A Discussion: Newspapers Exploring Parcel Delivery

RouteSmart Senior Business Development Manager Jason Fry and Derrick Stanford, VP of Business Development for RouteSmart Client, Postmedia Network Inc., recently appeared on Adrian Gonzalez’s Talking Logistics podcast to discuss how newspaper companies are dipping their toes into parcel delivery to create new revenue streams.

As e-commerce continues to grow globally, news organizations are finding new opportunities in parcel delivery. With the pandemic driving more online shopping, customers have increasingly high expectations for timely and safe delivery. News organizations are capitalizing on their existing distribution facilities and delivery networks to enter the parcel delivery market, positioning themselves for success.

A leader in the new wave, Postmedia Network Inc. in Canada launched Postmedia Parcel Services in May 2021, partnering with other newspapers to form a national network. By repositioning their legacy distribution network for multi-purpose, last-mile delivery, Postmedia and other news organizations are finding new revenue streams while providing high-quality editorial content to their subscribers.
