postparcels, part of UK Mail the Midlands based parcels and logistics company, have launched a new International Parcel Delivery service. Extending its UK next day collection and delivery service, internet based ipostparcels is now delivering to over 160 worldwide destinations by road and air.

The new service comes after a review of the marketplace and the rise of International online retailing. The online retailing industry has continued to boom over recent times and now e-tailers are growing their businesses by incorporating international shipping. 30% of all online cross-border trade in Europe comes from the UK according to the EMOTA, the European Multi-channel and Online Trade Association. In addition, a majority of small online retailers are expanding internationally on marketplaces such as ebay and Amazon making it even easier for online retailers to sell globally.

With the new international delivery service, ipostparcels are offering customers worldwide delivery to over 160 destinations by road and air. Customers book online using the easy booking form which automatically generates any customs invoices that may be needed. Parcels are collected from the customer and moved within the UK Mail network, allowing shippers to benefit from group economies of scale and marketing leading prices.

Guy Buswell, CEO of UK Mail said, "The demand in international shipping has risen, after intensive research and feedback from our customers we are proud to launch an international delivery service. UK Mail as a group has over 40 years experience in worldwide shipping, integrated with the convenience and low cost nature of ipostparcels.com it's a strong combination.

With the launch of international delivery we're able to give more choices to consumers and small businesses to send business parcels or gifts at incredibly low prices to anywhere in the world from the comfort of their homes. This demonstrates to our customers our commitment to providing an affordable and reliable parcel service as well as recognising the growing need for small business to operate on a global scale".

UK Mail launched ipostparcels an online next day collection and delivery service back in 2011 to serve the consumer, eBay and SME market. The service doesn't require customers to have a minimum shipping volume and can be used as an ad hoc service with all collections and deliveries going through parent company UK Mail's network. The group recently reported they are now handling some 10,000 items per week with this service.
