FRANKFURT (Reuters) - The German unit of TNT is building a mail delivery consortium in Germany to rival Deutsche Post, weekly magazine WirtschaftsWoche said.
The new company, to be named Mail Alliance, will include Berlin-based Pin Mail and distribution companies belonging to Stuttgart-based publishers Georg von Holtzbrinck and Hannover-based publishing house Madsack.
How big a stake the different companies will take in the new firm remains unclear, WirtschaftsWoche said.
The aim is to create an independent distribution network across Germany so mail weighing up to 1000 grams can be delivered within 24 to 48 hours.
The alliance will share a common information technology infrastructure, the magazine said.
Currently independent mail delivery firms command only a 10 percent market share in Germany.
WirtschafsWoche belongs to the Georg von Holtzbrinck publishing group.

TNT to deliver mail in Germany!
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

A relative of mine used to deliver TNT to Germany - he said the customers used to shoot at him as he was flying over - good job we don't have to put up with that - the bloody dogs are bad enough.
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile
