Emirates Post highlighted the UAE's experience in growing mail business at the Strategic Forum "Pochtovaya Troika 2007" under the aegis of Universal Postal Union (UPU) and World Philatelist Exhibition held in St. Petersburg, Russia, recently. Addressing the forum on the challenges of growing mail traffic, Abdullah Al Daboos, Director General of Emirates Post, said mail operators today needed to change their business model and operational strategies. He recounted Emirates Post's experience in adding new business streams and highlighted successful diversification into logistics, financial services, direct marketing, mail fulfilment and other areas.
