As e-commerce platforms increasingly turn to Indian posts to deliver their orders to customers, the fast-growing e-retail business is a source of revenue for the state agency, whose traditional businesses are fueled by the proliferation of e-mail and email Mobile phones are compromised. To unlock the potential, Swiss Post has set up its own e-commerce and parcel processing center in the country's Mumbai commercial center. The Parel site in the city covers 12,000 square meters and has done good business in a short time, handling around 5,000 orders a day. The officials expect at this rate that traffic will soon rise to 10,000 parcels per day. The plant has a capacity of 30,000 plots per day. Several e-commerce companies have already contacted the department to connect with India's oldest and most trusted National Post, including major companies such as Amazon, Snapdeal, Flipkart, E-Bay, Telebrand India, TVC Network, Quick Services and red box. "The trade agreement started last year and we now had a trading relationship with 46 e-commerce companies in the Mumbai region, 7 in Pune and 6 in Goa," said a senior Post Department official. "As our Speed Post service is known as the most preferred premium brand, these companies use our services to deliver their goods through us," the official said.
"In the last fiscal year, we received nearly Rs. 10 billion from the supply of items booked through e-commerce companies, and for the current year we have doubled our target," he said, adding that the department had the Right to examine the articles for the investigation and intercept purposes. Apart from electronic devices such as mobile phones and a variety of gadgets, a variety of other items such as clothing, consumer goods, perfumes, hint jewelry and a wide range of other products booked through the e-commerce platform are delivered by mail. Rajiv Singal, Bharat Merchant Chamber trustee and postal affairs expert, said, "E-commerce companies have created an opportunity to revitalize the postal business, and the postal service should make full commercial use of it."
