NetDespatch Sees Online Purchasing Boom for Christmas 2012

MARLOW, England, December 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    NetDespatch is reporting a 20 percent increase in online traffic compared to the same
period in 2011. Once again the growing strength of the online market is being demonstrated
over the Christmas period. Cyber Monday, which falls on the first Monday of December, saw
112 million visits to retail websites in the UK. However growing confidence in online
services and delivery has meant that the second Monday, 10th December, saw a seven percent
further rise with the peak expected to be reached on the 17th.

    Now estimated to be used by 75,000 retailers worldwide, NetDespatch's web technology
combines increased operational efficiency with the production of correctly addressed and
routed carrier labels.

    NetDespatch provide a fully managed processing platform offering easy to use web-based
software tools and services connecting warehouse and order processing systems, such as
eSellerPro, Maginus and Magento, directly and securely to the NetDespatch servers. The
same despatch and delivery data is then forwarded to the selected postal or parcel
carrier, ensuring that information is entered just once and that parcels arrive on time.

    December has seen new milestones reached by many of NetDespatch's postal and parcel
delivery customers. CollectPlus, the innovative collection and delivery network for
on-line consumers, with an integrated network of convenience stores, supermarkets, garage
forecourts and shopping centres, has experienced another impressive year and recently
announced the delivery of their 10 millionth item through the NetDespatch platform since
they were founded in 2009.

    In November 2012, the APC Overnight network received more than a million on-line
consignments for delivery through their 115 strong UK nationwide depot network. This was
the icing on the cake for the UK's largest next day delivery network, which reported a
13.5 percent increase in turnover, in a highly successful 2012.

    "2012 has been a great year for NetDespatch and our customers. Our services allow
retailers, mail order companies and manufacturers to process peak volumes without any IT
restrictions, and by making online despatch, labelling and tracking so easy it is helping
businesses of all sizes to become more competitive and grow," commented Becky Clark, CEO
of NetDespatch.
