Letters and parcels are the backbone of Swiss Post, and that will remain so. But Swiss Post does not just transport consignments. It is active in five markets, which all contribute to the success of this diversified company:

Logistics Services is responsible for delivering letters and parcels,

Communications Services offers digital ecosystems where private individuals, SMEs and public authorities can network, access services and interact,

PostalNetwork handles branch operations,

Mobility ServicesTarget not accessible deals with the Postbuses and the transport market, and lastly,

the company’s financial business is the responsibility of PostFinanceTarget not accessible

Swiss Post is committed to sustainable growth so that it can continue to provide Switzerland with universal service funded from its own resources.

Self-propelled growth

Swiss Post’s growth is being achieved organically, for instance by benefiting from current market growth (e.g. e-commerce). Additionally, the company is also strengthening its position in defined markets, or diversifying its range of services to meet new customer needs (e.g. Swiss Post is also opening up its branches to cooperation partners).

Expanding its core competences

At the same time, Swiss Post is increasingly relying on inorganic growth – in other words, company acquisitions. In each instance, it is determined if the competencies required to meet our goals can be developed internally or obtained more efficiently through targeted acquisitions. This means that acquisitions always strengthen or expand Swiss Post’s core competencies and are critical to its success.
