Ruch to expand range of services

Newsstand operator Ruch has grown its network to offer a wider range of services. It is now developing cooperation with e-commerce, Ruch’s deputy CEO Dariusz Stolarczyk was quoted as saying by ISBnews. “Ruch would like to be a services firm, offering a wide range of opportunities for the customer,” Stolarczyk said. “We are no longer just a press and cigarettes retail company, we have become a logistics firm.” The company has already launched cooperation with e-commerce sites. One of its competitive advantages is that customers may both pick up parcels at a Ruch stand and also return them there if they are not satisfied. Further developments will include a range of postal services in cooperation with InPost and Polska Grupa Pocztowa. Financial services are also in the pipeline.
