SingPost\'s diversified offering includes retail, storage, financial services and integrated business services in addition to its traditional postal activities, and the company now operates in 19 markets with over 7500 employees around the world.
The origins of SingPost can be traced back to 1819, when a single mail office was established to serve the newly-founded British trading post of Singapore. Demand for postal services soon began to grow, and the \'Post Office\' was officially established as a government department in 1858.
