Mexican Postal Service strategy

among the Mexican Postal Service’s strategies to pull itself out of financial ruin are plans to offer banking services at its client attention services, and to force private courier companies to comply with the law, said Communications and Transport ministry senior official Jorge Alvarez. The idea would be for the nation’s banks to automate Mexico’s more than 1,800 post offices in order to provide their services and improve the quality of the mail, reported Mexico City daily Reforma. Alvarez recognized that the growth in services offered by private courier companies led the Postal Service toward obsolescence, as did a lack of modernization and training.
