SingPost launches SP Commerce
Singapore Post (SingPost) has announced the launch of SP Commerce, a global omni-channel commerce and fulfilment platform. SP Commerce will integrate SingPost’s e-commerce division with the activities of the two US-based e-commerce companies which SingPost acqquired in 2015: TradeGlobal Holdings and Jagged Peak.
In a statement issued today (18 January), SingPost commented: “SP Commerce, a pioneer in omni-channel enablement for global brands and retailers, will facilitate commerce between geographies, providing the necessary infrastructure for customers to gain easy access to eCommerce markets around the world.
“The solutions that SP Commerce offer include end-to-end services spanning webstore development and operations, global fulfilment, omni-channel order management, cross-border commerce, performance marketing, and customer care services. SingPost now provides end-to-end eCommerce logistics solutions to more than 100 mono-brands such as Adidas, Calvin Klein, Cole Haan and Muji.”
SingPost added: “With about 1,000 eCommerce clients globally, SingPost operates more than 50 distribution centres across at least 18 countries – including major eCommerce markets in the US, Europe, China and the rest of Asia Pacific.”
Marcelo Wesseler, Chief Executive Officer, SingPost ecommerce, commented: “The launch of SP Commerce marks a significant milestone in SingPost’s transformation from a domestic postal service provider to a global eCommerce logistics enabler. We are well positioned to provide the gateway for brands and retailers, with sights set on international markets to grow their businesses leveraging our existing capabilities as well as newly acquired infrastructure and knowledge.
“Other than bringing businesses abroad, we are also focused on facilitating commerce in the domestic US market as we believe that a strong business foundation in the home market makes a solid springboard for global expansion.”
