AMI Express Europe review nets 25% business boost
AMI Express – the express division of the world’s largest freight wholesaler – is celebrating a 25% boost to its traffic from the UK to Europe, just 8 weeks after it announced a total review of its services. Despite dramatic rate reductions to 49 countries, revenue was also up 14%. Other measures in the AMI Express review included the introduction of a new next-morning service covering Germany (the UK’s largest express market), the scrapping of non-docs surcharges throughout Europe, more competitive rates for shipments over 10 kilos, spot-rating on shipments over 30 kilos, and the pegging of its fuel surcharge at just 6%. European carriers and delivery partners were also scrutinised to improve competitiveness, reliability and transit times. Andy Nicol of Map Cargo International (London Heathrow) won £100 in M&S vouchers, in a promotion designed to test customer knowledge of the new AMI Express European tariff and services.
