Ottawa (ON) – With more Canadians doing their holiday shopping online, parcel volumes have begun to soar, setting up what is expected to be a record-breaking season. As Canada Post delivers two out of three parcels ordered online, it has significantly boosted its seasonal resources and revamped its operations to ensure that retailers can meet customer expectations, and that gift-givers across the country receive their orders on time.
Holiday preparations include:
- Canada Post has doubled its capacity with national transportation suppliers.
- Air transportation capacity has been increased significantly.
- To reduce the impact on the environment, Canada Post will continue to use alternate fuelled and low emission vehicles.
Since Canadians have already begun to gear up for the holidays, Canada Post would like to wish shoppers and retailers a very happy season ahead. The Corporation looks forward to serving its customers during this busy time, from coast to coast to coast.
