bpost gains more than 1% in Brussels, the group having announced an agreement with French-speaking newspaper publishers concerning the distribution of newspapers in Wallonia from July 1, when the press concession ends.

Under the agreed terms, it will continue to distribute all newspapers throughout Wallonia until the end of 2025. From 2026 onwards, publishers may transfer the distribution of their newspapers to an alternative on a progressive basis.

Now that it has the necessary visibility concerning the distribution of newspapers in Wallonia and Flanders, bpost will be able to quantify the corresponding financial impacts and will shortly publish its financial guidance for 2024.
