The National Postal Forum: We are going to be telling the “UGLY BETTY” story of the shipping world

 

 

Toronto, March 25, 2007 – Business leaders will be following the “UGLY BETTY” story of the shipping world.  We will be discussing what industry watchers should know about the unloved, odd sized and bulky packages being shipped across North America.   For starters they are more expensive, more difficult to ship and are causing big headaches for businesses in the Internet economy. We will be at the National Postal Forum March 25-28, 2007 - Washington, DC, Booth 484.  The National Postal Forum is the premier educational event/experience and tradeshow for shipping, fulfillment and mail professionals.  We will be providing for media representatives individual briefings behind the story on the huge costs being experienced by shippers across North America. The briefing will include an inside discussion about the serious implications of the industry shift to Dimensional (DIM) Weight calculations by major carriers. Freight auditors will be contributing their expertise to this dialogue. It is a developing story and the media are welcome to visit our booth or to contact us directly.
