CitySprint has acquired all the same day, UK overnight and International services from Eagle Express Worldwide Couriers.

The company will remain in its current location in Old Woking and will transition over to the CitySprint brand this month.

The acquisition will expand CitySprint’s scale and reach, providing Eagle Express Worldwide Couriers’ customers with an enhanced service through its 2,000 couriers and network of 35 UK service centres.

In addition, customers will benefit from CitySprint’s investment in leading-edge technology such as its national, live courier-tracking system and automated status notifications.

Patrick Gallagher, chief executive of CitySprint, said: “This deal is another important step in CitySprint’s on-going growth strategy. We’re delighted to be increasing our presence in Woking and tapping into Eagle Express’s local knowledge.”

Ian McClean, who founded the company with his wife Liz, said: “CitySprint shares our commitment to customer service, so we’ll be working together to ensure that the integration is a seamless process.

“For the time being, it is ‘business as usual’ for our customers, with the same teams and same couriers in place.”

This acquisition follows CitySprint’s successful acquisition of Scarlet Couriers in July this year and comes a year after their biggest acquisition to date, of the courier operations of Lewis Day and Medical Services Limited in November 2011.
