Torstar, the owner of the Toronto Star
and more than 70 other papers in
Metroland Parcel Services
will use Torstar’s contracted driver network to provide retailers next-day and
two- or three-day deliveries. The deliveries are trackable.
“We’ve been delivering to
these neighborhoods across the province for 100+ years but just didn’t stop and
think why don’t we actually deliver other stuff?” said Paul Rivett, Torstar’s
chairman and co-owner.
“This is the first of a number of announcements around building on the foundation of what was just newspapers,” he said.
Nordstar Capital, Rivett and
business partner Jordan Bitove’s firm, bought Torstar this year.
