SingPost opens $182m post office at Tampines

It's the post office's biggest investment in Singapore so far.

Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) announced the launch of its Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub (“eComm Log Hub”) located at the Tampines Logistics Park.

The S$182 million facility is SingPost’s largest eCommerce logistics investment in Singapore to date.

The eComm Log Hub will be officially opened today by Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister and Coordinating Minister for Economic and Social Policies, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam.

SingPost’s eComm Log Hub is a three-storey facility housing two warehousing floors, 150 simultaneous loading bays as well as an office block.

The ground floor of the building houses a fully automated parcel sorting facility with a capacity of up to 100,000 parcels a day, and end-to-end sorting, shipping and returns management capabilities that enable quicker order fulfilment.

The total built-up area is 553,000 square feet.

Automation plays a big part in the eComm Log Hub – beyond the fully automated parcel sorting system on the first floor of the facility, the second floor warehouse is also automated, resulting in the entire eComm Log Hub being integrated end-to-end from the eCommerce front-end platform to delivery.

The eComm Log Hub will process parcels for delivery within Singapore and those to be shipped to destinations worldwide.
