Jokers' Masquerade Fancy Dress Conquers Royal Mail Postal Strike For Halloween

Newbury, UK, 19th October 2009. BBC South Today reporter Allen Sinclair interviewed Jokers' Masquerade's Director of Operations, Rob Hamilton-Day, on the Royal Mail strike commencing on Thursday 23rd October. With a series of national strikes looming, South Today were keen to interview this local business to find out how they would be affected.

Being the UK's largest online retailer of fancy dress costumes and with over 40% of Jokers' Masquerade annual business taking place over the next two weeks ahead of Halloween, Jokers' Masquerade looked sure to be affected but, taking South Today on a tour of the warehouse, Rob Hamilton-Day explained the contingency plan now in place.

In summary, Jokers' Masquerade have suspended all services with Royal Mail and have moved their courier service to City Link to ensure customers get their costumes in time for Halloween. The good news is that this service will be at no extra cost to Jokers' Masquerade customers.
