SingPost injects $30m to expand e-commerce logistics hub capacity

This will enable the facility to handle 400,000 parcels per day.

Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) will expand its eCommerce processing capacity with a $30m investment in its Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub (eComm LogHub) facility.

The investment will install new sorting equipment that can process up to 300,000 small parcels per day at the eComm LogHub, up from the present 100,000.

Combined with the larger parcel processing capacity added during the $182m renovation in 2016, the new small-parcel sorting equipment on the third floor will increase the eComm LogHub's e-commerce processing capacity to approximately 400,000 parcels per day.

The facility also features a warehouse on the second floor, 150 simultaneous loading bays, and an office block.

“The investment in capacity building not only enhances operational efficiency but unlocks a pathway for growth. By leveraging our infrastructure, SingPost could play the role of an industry consolidator, opening our historically closed networks to partnerships or undertaking services for other parties in the industry,” Simon Israel, chairman of the board at SingPost said.
