"The process with TNT is really easy for users," said Frank Coccia, Chief Executive Officer. "PUDO members just log in through the PUDO site, complete the online form with payment info, print off their waybill, attach to the shipment and drop it off at their nearest PUDO Point location to save 25% or more to some destinations, on all international shipping."

"We are really excited about the PUDO business model and believe that it represents an important step forward in our industry.  Our partnership with PUDO makes international shipping not only less expensive, but also more convenient," said George Almeida, General Manager TNT Express Canada. 

PUDO currently has over 2,200 PUDO Point dealer locations across Canada underway and more than 3,000 locations in the United States signed up to become operational in 2015 and 2016. For these local PUDO Point locations, PUDO provides opportunities for additional foot traffic and the potential for repeat customer business.  PUDO has also created affiliate agreements with some of North America's most well-known retailers, including Amazon, eBay, Hudson's Bay, and Walmart.
