Servisco to be phased out by Deutsche Post

Over the next year the brand name Servisco, the most serious competitor to Poczta Polska, will disappear from the Polish market. The German owners of Servisco, Deutsche Post, intend to replace a handful of existing local companies with a single brand name, easily recognizable around the world. Hence they decided to merge the operations of DHL, also belonging to Deutsche Post, with those of Servisco under one common name DHL Express, thus creating the largest company on the parcel services market, as the combined gross income of DHL and Servisco for 2002 stood at zł. 410 million.
