Qantas launches rebranded courier business

Qantas Freight has launched courier and baggage delivery services to Qantas and third party customers under the new brand name Qantas Courier

According to executive manager of Qantas Freight, Stephen Cleary, Qantas Courier had been established to reposition the Australian and New Zealand operations following the sale of Qantas' investment in DPEX Worldwide

Qantas Courier will use the network of the Qantas Group and third party suppliers, including Australian air Express and Star Track Express, to offer courier and baggage services

Cleary said that Qantas would remain the biggest customer of the business, and cost savings were expected through aggregation of the Group's logistics and supply chain requirements under a single entity

Qantas Courier's offices and retail counters are located near international airports in Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Auckland The business also has a retail presence at Sydney and Brisbane international airports through its Unaccompanied Baggage counters
