Thailand Post plans to set up logistics hub for the country’s Eastern Economic Corridor

Thailand Post has announced plans to develop a logistics hub for the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) project in Chonburi province. According to local sources, the national postal operator is focusing on ways to foster more e-commerce growth in Thailand – by developing e-marketplaces and ramping up its delivery channels for online sellers.

The company is also reportedly looking to develop e-payment gateways to support the use of digital wallets.

In addition, Thailand Post is using “Smart postboxes” that can be used to deliver tourist information, in addition to their standard postal duties.
