Cayman courier service is among the best in the world
Reliable and qualitative communication services are very important for every offshore jurisdiction. Now the Cayman Islands can surely boast of good postal service.
The Universal Postal Union has ranked the Cayman Islands Postal Service’s overnight courier service as the 5th best in the world.
The Cayman’s Express Mail System received 99% in the assessment. The assessment evaluated 6 criteria that included delivery performance and the quality of its tracking.
The Cayman’s EMS’s high ranking earned the service a gold standard from the Universal Postal Union. The gold standard was granted only 14 out of 134 participating countries.
The Minister of Communications, Arden McLean said that this was a great achievement and added that Express Mail System was just one of the services offered by the Postal Service and some other services, including customer service, have significantly improved.
In the rating, Cayman’s EMS was behind only Hong Kong, Azerbaijan, Singapore and the Republic of Korea, while the USA was only 62nd and Canada was 24th.
The Universal Postal Union is an agency of the United Nations, which is the primary forum for co-operation between postal-sector players in the world. The EMS Co-operative is its section dealing with making awards to the countries showing the best performance.
