Post office to be cut, Orlen rubbing his hands

The project – as the newspaper notes – assumes the separation of courier and logistics services from the Post Office to a separate entity. “Such an operator will require significant external capital – hence the idea to merge this company with Orlen (the giant has been successfully developing the Orlen Paczka courier service for several years)” – reports “Rz”. The ministry headed by Jacek Sasin did not answer Rzeczpospolita’s questions on this matter.

Orlen, in turn, admitted that in the context of its upcoming business plans “various options are being considered that will contribute to the development of the Orlen Paczka vending machine network”.

“At this stage, we do not comment on talks on potential cooperation,” the company said in a statement.
