Point to Point closing down

Point To Point Parcel has announced that it is closing effective April 19 with the last packages accepted on April 11.

Co-owner and manager Beth Calder said, “It was definitely a business decision to close. I wanted to end with dignity and grace. There was lots of blood and sweat shed building the business up for the last 24 years but we can’t make it with all the tariffs that are killing businesses. All the parcel places across the border are struggling. It’s really sad that the government is doing this to all the small businesses. We’ve had lots of support from our customers but it’s time to close.”

At one point, the business employed 11 people but dwindled down to three full-time and one part-timer. The family-owned and run business opened in 2001.
