"I'm going on Sunday, too".CJ Korea Express begins shipping 7 days a week

CJ Korea Express announced on the 1st that it will start shipping seven days a week from the 5th.

Consumers will be able to receive products ordered such as fresh food on weekends with delivery seven days a week. Until now, about 70 days a year, including Sundays and holidays, have not been able to receive packages.

The five-day work week system will be applied step by step to couriers. Lunar New Year and Chuseok are closed for three days, respectively, and Liberation Day and "Delivery Day" are also closed, so delivery seven days a week is not applied.

The initial seven-day delivery service area will exclude towns and villages with low delivery density, and it will be expanded nationwide if delivery is settled stably in the future and the volume increases.

This is a measure to prevent overwork that may occur if the courier in charge of holiday delivery takes over an excessively large area.
