Singapore Post Ltd. (SingPost) plans to expand its e-commerce touchpoints in both urban and heartland areas as it integrates logistical services into
customers' daily routines. In 2024, SingPost launched its standalone POPStop, a
shipping and return drop-off service, at Tampines MRT station. It has also deployed mail ambassadors to collect postal items at Tampines and Raffles Place MRT stations.
“We are strategically locating our service points in the heartlands and close to main transportation nodes to serve the needs of the community,” Shahrin Abdol Salam, CEO at SingPost's Singapore business, told Singapore Business Review.
“Together with Stellar Lifestyle, the business arm of SMRT, we aim to continue bringing convenience to commuters through the integration of e-commerce services into daily commutes, at key transportation nodes across Singapore,” he added.
