Singapore Post is the national postal service provider in Singapore. It provides domestic and international postal and courier services. However, its main revenue driver is its Australian logistics operation, which accounted for 46% of FY23 revenue. Singapore Post also offers end-to-end e-commerce logistics solutions.

SingPost’s expansion into the growing but fragmented Australian logistics market is an attractive pivot away from its origins in Singapore. That said, although traditional post volumes in the territory are declining, e-commence volumes are growing rapidly and are likely to offset declining post volumes.

Singapore Post’s H1 trading was ‘resilient’, despite challenging market conditions across several of its businesses. Revenue increased by 20%, mainly due to the inclusion of the March 2024 acquisition of Border Express. This fed through to operating profit growth, which was up more than 60%. Divisional profit performance was mixed due to a number of issues but benefit was generated from internal initiatives and the postal rate increase introduced last year. However, there was no new news of the ongoing review of the Australian business.
