Canada Post Corporation and FedEx Express Canada have combined forces in the development of Priority Worldwide, a new international express service.

The product will be delivered worldwide through the extensive FedEx delivery network, and sold in Canada through Canada Post’s retail and commercial networks.

Priority Worldwide will offer an on-time, money-back guarantee and delivery standards of next business by noon to most USA destinations and two to three business days to most of the remaining industrialized world. President of FedEx Express Canada, David Binks, said, “FedEx is making it easier for Canada Post’s customers to grow their businesses in a global marketplace.”

Service

Canadian shippers will be able to use the new service when it becomes available in the fall of 2008 to send envelopes up to 500 grams, packs up to 1.5 kg and parcels up to 30 kg around the world. Other key features include tracking, delivery confirmation and signature upon delivery.

Moya Greene, president and CEO of Canada Post said, “Globally, postal administrations and express companies are working together to improve service to their customers.”
