TNT to add 8 outlets

SHANGHAI: Global courier TNT will add eight new branches in China by the end of the year, as it tries to shore up market share in the country.

The eight new branches will bring its total in China to 34. The new outlets will be located in Pearl and Yangtze river delta cities Dongguan, Zhongshan, Foshan, Shunde, Nanning, Wenzhou, Kunshan and Shanghai - key manufacturing and export centers.

"The setting up of the eight new branches is in line with our long-term ambitions in the China market," Michael Drake, managing director of TNT China, said.
