An interesting email dropped into my inbox this morning, from GFS, talking about peak season shipping preparedness. It immediately reminded me of the couple of times carriers have gone out of business in Q4, notably City Link who went into administration on Christmas Day 2014!
As one of the largest carriage buyers in the UK, GFS has access to the carrier parcel volumes and prices UK retailers need over the Peak season. They help UK retailers stay ahead by protecting delivery performance and ensuring a superior customer experience, even in the busiest periods.
