September 23rd will go down as the day Parcelnet offered courier based deliveries in all provinces of the United Kingdom with the opening of our new operation in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

For the past 12 years the business had sub contracted all of the Irish traffic to a third party partner. Whilst this worked for the business for that time, it was felt that both operationally and strategically Parcelnet should have a long term presence in the country. As a result we have opened an operation within facilities provided by Bondelivery.

This operation consists of a 30,000 square foot warehouse, 104 courier routes, 9 radial vans, 2 sub depots and 16 staff including 2 full time Parcelnet field managers. It is planned to channel all existing Parcelnet traffic through this facility as well as the new business we signed with Next for their Directory home deliveries. It is projected that the depot will handle on average 6,000 units per day, offering a 72hr delivery service from the mainland to the end client, a significant uplift from the previous service provider.
