Convenience store operator FamilyMart Co. and Japan Post Holdings Co. said Tuesday they will begin a delivery service enabling foreign visitors to Japan to send packages from FamilyMart’s domestic stores for pickup at its stores elsewhere around Asia.
FamilyMart expects foreign visitors to use the service — the first international delivery service offered by a Japanese convenience store chain — to send home souvenirs and other items purchased in Japan. Items will be shipped overseas via the distribution network of Japan Post.
