Swiss Post Solutions (SPS) opens Singapore office  

Press release dated 02.12.2011

Swiss Post Solutions (SPS) announces the opening of a new office in Singapore, supporting its continued expansion into the Asian market.

SPS knows that clients - particularly within the financial sector - are increasingly focusing on the Asian market, and the new office is an integral part of SPS' strategy to support its clients wherever they operate in the world. SPS has already established document processing centres in Vietnam – both in Ho Chi Minh City and in Can Tho with a total staff of over 1000 people – and will be able to use these facilities to service increasing numbers of clients in the Asia Pacific region.

«"Singapore is  a key cornerstone to establishing a solid presence in Asia in the next three to five years. Singapore is part of our long-term strategy to proactively grow selected markets, and be a true tier-one service partner to our clients”, commented  Markus J Becker, CEO SPS International and Global Clients.»

The Singapore operation will be headed up by Dimitri Getsios, who has over 12 years experience in the outsourcing sector. Dimitri served as a member of the Swiss Management Board at IT Outsourcing firm EDS, and held responsibility for leading the sales process, ensuring the development of new business, and the continued growth of global customers in Switzerland.

«"Singapore is one of the main Asia Pacific locations for the head offices of large international companies, and many of our existing global clients, particularly from UK and US financial industries, are based here.»

«Singapore is also a perfect location to service key metropolitan areas in the region, such as Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo. It's from this hub that we can truly transform our clients' business processes, accelerating top line growth through innovative end-to-end corporate information and customer interaction solutions,"» said Dimitri Getsios.

SPS has successfully differentiated itself in the global marketplace by combining competencies in the management of both corporate information (mailroom and office services, document processing, and records management) and customer interaction management (document output, billing, payment and loyalty marketing ). It is these document-related services that SPS Singapore will focus on delivering, together with ePostal services (security and identity solutions as well as hybrid mail including Swiss Post Box) to clients.
