Hundreds of small to medium sized businesses could take advantage of a new delivery service designed by the UK’s largest dedicated home delivery and collection service, Home Delivery Network (HDN). The company is currently piloting the SME devoted service at eight of its depots*, offering a cost effective logistics solution for businesses delivering lower volumes.

Available to companies located within a 15 mile radius of the eight depots, the service has been specifically designed for retailers despatching 2,000 - 50,000 parcels under 32 kg annually.

“We have opened our network to allow smaller retailers to take advantage of our delivery expertise and nationwide network of specialist staff,” said HDN’s Chief Executive Brian Gaunt. “The service will offer bespoke solutions for locally based SME’s looking for a cost effective and convenient delivery option.”

The delivery service includes online parcel track and trace, proof of delivery and 24 or 48 hour delivery services as standard and is available to customers based in Northern Ireland.

The service is currently being piloted in eight of HDN’s regional depots and will be launched nationwide later this year.
