Whistl (formerly TNT Post UK) is a postal delivery company based in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, England. The company primarily competes (and in some instances partners) with UK Mail, UPS, Parcelforce, DHL, Evri, Royal Mail and Yodel. According to the company, it processes about 25% of the mail in the United Kingdom, amounting to over 3.7 billion items per year in 2015.[1]

Whistl provides services across business mail, parcel delivery, order fulfilment, contact centres and Doordrop Media both in the UK and internationally, processing around 50% of bulk business mail in the United Kingdom,[2] handles more than 3.6 billion items a year and has over 1.5 million square feet of fulfilment space across the UK.

The company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Dutch delivery company PostNL until October 2015, when a management buyout was completed. PostNL remained a minority shareholder.
