Many LPOs across the country are going to be facing tough times while their communities try to rebuild and get back on track. Retail and transaction counts will be pretty low for quite a while.

If this is what you are facing the following news article might be of interest. Maybe in your downtime you could make a submission for a grant to help tide you over while your community is focused on recovery.

It won't hurt to put up your case. As with all these things, there will be no guarantee, but everyone will still want their mail.

For hundreds of LPOs 2020 has not started out quite as expected. The widespread bushfires have had a dramatic impact over most of the eastern seaboard and in many other locations in SA and WA. 

2020 might well be going to be a decade of change for our industry, or more probably, a decade of facing the realities of the changes of the last decade that has cut through our safe little harbour. But without a doubt a challenging future is coming. 

And it is not just us. NZ Post is shutting down its corporate network and setting up a version of inconjunction outlets to provide a limited service presence in communities. We have all been concluding that Kiwi Bank had saved the PO network. Apparently not.

and before you know it, a new one starting again..........

So make the most of this festive season with you and your families and friends.

Merry Christmas to us all.

is very ill in hospital and needs a good boost of well wishes to help him to keep his strength building to overcome his health issues.

Ron has done so much for LPOs by taking on our cause, and he was such a tower of strength for all of us. 

LPOG invites interested Members to nominate (or be nominated) to fill 3 vacant Elected Director’s role (subject to election) for the Board of Directors of The LPO Group Limited (LPOG).

The viability and sustainability of the LPO network is ranked as a high priority on CEO of Australia Post Christine Holgate’s must have list. This is a breakthrough position for Licensees, and it is time for Licensees to grab the opportunities and grow our Post business to help ourselves to a much better future.

A huge thanks to all our members who have helped fly the LPOG flag at the 2019 Australia Post LPO Expos in Qld, NSW, VIC, SA & WA.
