West Yorkshire parcel delivery firm Hermes, which includes a hub in Bradford to cope with peak demand, has become the first to offer householders a seven-day service by introducing Sunday deliveries.
The company will initially offer Sunday delivery as a next-day service for orders received on a Saturday.
Carole Woodhead, chief executive at Morley-based Hermes UK, said: “The retail sector has been trading seven days a week for a long time now and by introducing this service we are giving online shoppers the same service.”
Hermes has opened a 50,000 sq ft hub at Listerhills in Bradford capable of handling 60,000 parcels a day to meet peak period demand.
