Slough: Acquisition of the international mail activities of Pitney Bowes by Asendia

Asendia, the joint venture created in 2012 between two of the world's leading postal operators: Swiss Post and La Poste, has agreed to acquire the international mail activities of Pitney Bowes in the UK. 

Asendia UK CEO Frederic Petton commented: "The acquisition reinforces our market position in the United Kingdom, a key market for Asendia, and underlines the company's strategy for development and growth in cross-border mail. Our slogan, 'The world is your address', is a pledge to our customers that our solutions will support them wherever in the world their mail needs to go.

"For the time being operations for all of Pitney Bowes’ customers will continue as usual. Our aim going forward, however, is to offer an even wider range of high-quality, value-added products and services for international mail, and to continue to be counted on for excellence, innovation and efficiency in international mail."
