The Whistler Employee Newsletter Your monthly round up of what’s been happening across the Group July 2024 Parcels is a key growth area for the Whistl group through our Parcelhub and Whistl brands. Parcels Update The change in the dynamics of the UK parcels market means that both Whistl Parcels and Parcelhub are increasingly competing in the same market space. We have therefore decided to unite the two Parcels businesses and bring them together as one single brand, Parcelhub. We believe this will provide clarity to the market and our existing and potential customers, providing them with a unique, national multi-carrier solution which will drive growth for our business. This change will be completed in a phased approach, starting September 2024.
