Australia Post

Australia's government-owned postal service control, Australia Post, is dedicated to providing first-rate mail and parcel services for every Australian. Comprised of professional, keen individuals, the post builds a progressive business corporation through a pledge of advanced customer satisfaction, with a mission to meet the changing needs of customers through giving innovative and easy-to-use services and products, consistent on-time delivery, friendly service by well-informed staff, contemporary efficient networks, and value for money.

The Australia Post started about 1809 with the first Sydney postmaster, Isaac Nichols, who had the main task of collecting mail from arriving ships. Postal services steadily increased all through Australia city states as they were established. In 1838, a standard Sydney-Melbourne overland service started, as did the release of prepaid postal stamps. Standardized postal rates were agreed upon by the city states and established in 1849. In 1989, the post was made into a corporation although it still trades as Australia Post.

Today, while remaining a government-owned organization, and with control over normal letter delivery, Australia Post activities outside the standard letter delivery have progressively become more commercial, selling broad variety of ostensibly postal-related products such as stationery, cards, and gifts as well as Traveler's Checks and Money Orders. However, it's most innovative business has been its bills payment service through its extensive branch network supported by a big selection of insurance, financial, utility, and government companies.
