Our client challenged Williams Lea and CitySprint to solve this dilemma and provide an environmentally friendly SameDay Courier solution for its headquarters in Canary Wharf without compromising speed or efficiency
Our client is the investment banking division of a major UK bank with its headquarters located in Canary Wharf, London.
Traditionally the availability of environmentally friendly delivery options, such as pushbike couriers in Canary Wharf has been limited due to the distance between Canary Wharf and the City. This has been exacerbated by the main artery that connects the two areas, the ‘Limehouse Link’, being inaccessible to pushbikes.
