Pos Malaysia invests RM150mil to enhance capacity of IPCs

AmResearch said it expected the strong performance for the courier segment to remain intact, driven by the robust e-commerce market and it understood that the segment would continue to see a larger contribution from walk-in customers, which could contribute to slightly better margins.

KUALA LUMPUR: Pos Malaysia Bhd has invested RM150mil to enhance the capacity of its two Integrated Parcel Centres (IPCs) at Shah Alam and Sepang.

Group chief executive officer Datuk Mohd Shukrie Mohd Salleh said the enhancement would enable the IPCs to sort and deliver packages of up to 516,000 transactions daily by 2019 from the current 150,000.

“The enhancements are taking place concurrently. In two years time, the Shah Alam IPC’s capacity is expected to increase to 316,000 units daily.

“When the Sepang IPC is completed, also within the same period, the total capacity will hit 516,000 units daily,” he told reporters at a press conference after a signing event with Tigers Global Logistics Sdn Bhd, here today. - Bernama
