Tehran, IRNA – The e-commerce commodities account for more than 70 percent of postal traffic in Iran nowadays, an Iranian official said.
Mohammad-Reza Ghaderi, the secretary of the scientific committee of the first edition of the international POSTEXPO, said on Monday that those active in e-commerce, are well aware that over 70 percent of postal traffic is allocated to e-commerce commodities, so the main duty of the post company is to provide e-commerce services.
The official also said that the people, who know the up-to-date services of the post system, distinguish it as a platform for e-commerce activities, but there are some other individuals who are of the opinion that the duty of the post company is just dispatching letters.
Today, postal services are known as the infrastructure and e-commerce in the world, he said, arguing that a significant section of the exhibition is going to be allocated to those who supply logistic services relating to e-commerce.
The first edition of POSTEXPO is scheduled to be held in Tehran in late May this year.
