On Thursday morning, approximately 20,000 copies of the paper morning edition of NRC not delivered due to a malfunction at the printing company in Amsterdam. An ink leak and two paper breaks caused the problems. Despite the use of additional vans and cars to get as many newspapers as possible to the distribution centers, the usual delivery of about 70,000 copies was not successful.
Subscribers in the provinces of Friesland, Drenthe and Zeeland may not receive a newspaper on Thursday morning. Furthermore, the morning edition in the Achterhoek, East Brabant, South Gelderland and North Limburg may not have arrived. The newspaper was delivered on Thursday morning in South Limburg, Groningen and the Randstad.
The approximately 50,000 copies of the afternoon edition of NRC will also be delivered. Subscribers who have not received their morning newspaper will be informed by e-mail. Regular reporting, including on municipal elections, can be followed online and the digital morning newspaper can be downloaded from the website and in the app. Where possible, subscribers who did not receive a newspaper on Thursday morning will receive it on Friday morning – along with the Friday edition.
