I stated that one of the bigger companies dealt with 210,000 consignments last night. If one extrapolates from that, taking into account all the other companies involved in express delivery, one will find massive numbers of transactions going online. It is only when the amount of sorting is seen that one realises the volumes involved. If there is a problem at small business level in this regard, it really has to be thrashed out now in co-operation with the delivery companies.
