Denmark axes letter delivery service after 400 years

THE Danish state-run postal service is to end all letter deliveries at the end of the year, it was announced on Thursday.

Around 1,500 workers are set to lose their jobs out of a workforce of 4,600.

PostNord said the decision, which ends 400 years of a letter delivery service, was made because of a 90 per cent decline in letter volumes since the beginning of the century.
