😮 ROYAL MAIL STRIKES. 🤐
Are your parcels not turning up or really delayed? This could be the issue.
If you are not aware already Royal Mail have been having daily strikes since sept this year causing major delays and issues for the online retail sector not to mention the customers who have paid their hard earned cash for all sorts of items from pet food to one off gifts.
Sadly the issues continue as Royal Mail have strike action planned again for Thursday the 24th Nov and Friday the 25th. While 2 days will not seem a long time, for traders online we see something totally different. The issue for traders starts the day before the strike actions as the items we post out the day before will not get processed until the days after the strikes, which in turn means that the days of the strike do not get processed and so we have 3 days worth of goods sitting in a warehouse waiting to be processed.
The day that Royal Mail staff get back to work they will go out to collect the days collections to go back and add to the already piling stocks, which in turn cause more blocks. 😔
Problem for the retailer is the items that were collected the day before the strike action is now already been sat waiting for 3 working days and as we all expect our goods the next day or at least within 2-3 we start getting anxious. The customer will then notify the retailer that their goods have not turned up and they want and demand to know where the goods are, we are stuck up a creek with no paddle here!
Royal Mail start to sort their parcels out and start to get deliveries out, but now there are other issues. Items will start to get lost or damaged due to the overwhelming amount of parcels in the hubs, so now we have claims to deal with on top of angry customers who have temporarily lost their purchase, but more importantly they will have lost their trust in the retailer they purchased from which means that the retailer who worked so hard to ensure that the goods left in time has now lost their customers through no fault of their own!.
🧐WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP THAT?
A few things we can all do.
1: Check that there are no planned strikes either a day or two prior or a day or two after the day you plan on purchasing an item, which needs to be posted.
2: Check what delivery/courier company the retailer uses.
3: In many cases there are options for additional services like express next day or guaranteed shipping services, choose these if the costs are not to severe for your wallet.
4: Wait a few days. Let the dust settle for a few days after the final strike day then purchase your goods, you may find it gets delivered pretty fast as they will be very ready and keen to clear the deck.
But, most importantly, please think about the retailer when an issue like this comes up. If they are explaining about the strike days, or trying to help you, you may find they are doing all they can to help.
I know myself as a small distributor online every order matters and every customer means the world to us as orders and customers are so hard to come by nowadays with the ever expanding online sites and the major giant companies available. You May find you get a much better response from a small local business than the Huge online retailers and that 1 customer or order that gets lost may mean that 1 local trader will not make it through to next year and that would be another decent trader lost.
🤔 Have you had any issues with Royal mail deliveries? Does this post mean anything to you or helped you see what it is like for the retailer? Tell us about issues you have had or maybe the helpful retailers that need a shout out.
We would love to hear from you. 🫶🙌👊

Almec Products officially started trading in 2017.
We are a sister company to Almec Fencing, which has been a family run business for over 30 years now. Almec Fencing has 30 Years of experience in the Fencing Industry and for a few years has been supplying tools to our trade customers and public alike.
Almec Fencing/Products started to offer our small Hand and Power Tool range within the eBay platform from 2015, and have since seen our customer base and tool range grow steadily.
Almec decided to branch out and set Almecproducts.co.uk on its own, to expand and see what we could possibly bring into this huge, vast market of Tools.
We started, like most, in a small space which soon became full and we needed to expand. Almec Fencing gave us a unit within our site here in Stoke-on-Trent and we grew to require a 40ft container too. Now in 2019 we have started to occupy a fair amount of the offices and yard space with a range of 800 lines. Still small but moving steadily on offering low cost options and quality service to all.
May 2019 Almec Products is changing direction and style as we switched over to the new look and feel, as we bring in a fresh view of how we with to proceed in the market. Our design brings a dynamic, quality and trustworthy feel and look and with that will come High end quality sort after hand and power tools for the trade in mind.
