DEUTSCHE POST ROLLS OUT PAN-EUROPEAN PARCELS SERVICE

   Deutsche Post, the fast-growing postal and logistics
group, has introduced its uniform pan-European parcel and distribution service.

brand throughout Europe. The group aims to show that it is able to offer one-stop
solutions tailored to the requirements of the customer.

Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden; Ducros in France; Guipuzcoana in Spain and Portugal;
MIT in Italy; Securicor Omega Express in the U.K. and Ireland; Quickstep in Austria,
     Switzerland and the Czech Republic; and Servisco in Poland.
    In several countries, Deutsche Post’s subsidiaries’ and partners’
outside Germany will use the EURO EXPRESS brand while continuing to operate under their
own name.
