The Quickmail and Quickpac workforce can breathe a sigh of relief: After the Post’s failed takeover and impending collapse, the companies have come up with a new solution.

Swiss family company Planzer is taking over both Quickpac and Quickmail. This creates a new force in the Swiss parcel and partially liberalized postal market.

What do companies offer?

Quickpac is a technology start-up for smaller packages in German-speaking Switzerland. This focus will complement the existing “Planzer Package” package service, which transports medium-sized packages across the country via CO2-neutral rail for last-mile delivery to the destination location. And: Quickpac customers now benefit from nationwide parcel logistics. In the medium term, Quickpac will merge with Planzer under the “Planzer Package” brand.

Quickmail, on the other hand, was founded by private investors in 2009 after the letter monopoly was reduced to 50 grams. The company specializes in mail, magazine and catalog distribution and serves more than 3 million households throughout Switzerland. However, things have become quite difficult lately.

With the acquisition of Quickmail, Planzer expands its range of services by offering addressed and unaddressed mail in the partially liberalized postal market, ensuring that an alternative to state structures still exists in this market. In his statement, Planzer stated that he wanted to maintain Quickmail as a brand and independent organization.
