The City Sprint UK Ltd courier service has provided the collection and delivery of building related goods between the Department for International Trade properties on an ad-hoc basis. This includes items such as documents, parcels and mail.

The services have been received between April 2021 and October 2021. Due to systems limitations the duration is incorrectly reported as 4 days and we are seeking to correct this.
