The Challenge
The LSE first came to Asendia in 2006. The university required:
Weekly fulfilment on request and annual fulfilment of university prospectuses
Annual Fund mailings to 21,000 addresses worldwide, consisting of a letter postcard, BRE and outer envelope, all printed and supplied by Asendia
Reunion brochure mailings to 15,000 UK and 24,000 international addresses, consisting of invitations in C5 envelopes
The Solution
Asendia supplied a complete service for the university from printing to inserting and address labelling to posting at its 40,000 sq. ft., ISO 9001-accredited mailing fulfilment centre in Bedford. We provided a 2 day UK postal service up to 10% cheaper than Mailsort 2 and, sometimes, even competed with Mailsort 3. As well as UK mail, we provided direct entry services into Europe with some of the lowest international postal prices.
The university found a complete end-to-end fulfilment service at Asendia. As the second largest postal operator in Europe, Asendia was able to offer volume discounts on the postage rates, even on less common international destinations.
