Description
Postal and logistics firm TPG (TP) said it will merge three units into one, cutting 700 to 800 jobs, to offset the effects of declining mail volume, a tariff freeze and the sluggish economy. The company said the move - to merge its sorting, distribution and transport units - won't have an impact on TPG's Mail margin outlook for the full year.
