The conference brought to the fore the courier and postal services market, a highly dynamic market with an annual turnover of hundreds of millions euros and whose fast development will be carried on mostly by the advance of e-commerce. Organized with the support of AOCR – Romanian Courier Operators Association, of ARMAD – Romanian Direct Marketing Association, of ARMO – Romanian Association of E-Shopping and that of the Romanian Post, the conference gathered, besides major players in the market, delegates of companies in related fields – suppliers, banks and not least, prospective clients, creating the perfect environment for an interactive debate on the challenges arising in this sector and opportunities for its future development to be further reflected into possible professional collaborations.
”I thank the organizers for giving us the opportunity to get in touch with the industry. This audience basically gives an insight on how active this industry is and on the interest it stirs, because apart from couriers and postal services suppliers, there are so many banks, related industries that are interested in developing the courier sector, which creates some good premises for the future”, Catalin Marinescu, President of ANCOM - the National Authority for Management and Regulation in Communications of Romania, said.
”It is a brilliant job. It is the first time, I have been here in 13 years, that I’ve seen so many people from the courier industry together. All my competitor are here(...) To me, today is not <>. Today is about us as an industry telling you about the excitment that we’re in and I imagine, a place of environment where an industry is growing at 30, 40, 50 percent”, Gian Sharp, CEO of Cargus, one of the premium partners of the event, said, also proposing a novel approach, innovative in terms of technology, for the courier sector.
Asked what does the first franchise of the Romanian Post mean, Alexandru Petrescu, the company’s Vice-President, said: „It is Gheghe village, Bihor County. Franchise projects have been included in the development and cost optimization strategy of the Romanian Post for many years, it is not an attempt to reinvent the wheel(...). We specifically focused on rural areas because we have important costs there and among numerous requests from some entrepreneurs, we have gone through a number of criteria and we have started a project – it was launched in December, but it will be operational starting April”.
As for Prioripost, the courier solution proposed by the Romanian Post, the fact that it does not manage to be successful is attributed to an insufficient decentralization: ”Decentralization process is extensive, complex and sometimes painful. Unfortunately the company’s revenues and expenditures balance represents the company as a whole. I therefore return to the previously mentioned point concerning decentralization. At the moment we seek to branch out in a direct marketing system, we seek to branch out in a similar system with Prioripost, in everything related to courier and other associated services and other revenue sources we think about – and I mean the financial services field”, Petrescu explained during the Forum.
At the same time he confirmed the effort paid by the Romanian Post to carry out the privatization, which is the ground of the strategy of transforming debt into equity, considered ”a measure which might substantially increase the attractiveness of the company”.
The Forum Partners were: Cargus, DPD, FAN Courier, General Logistic Systems, Mastercard, Michelin, Mix Telematics, Motorola Solutions, Noerr, Oscar Downstream, Urgent Curier, Sameday Courier, Renault, SAP, Promotional Interservice, AON, Gral Medical, Corporate Baskets, Dexion, Romkuvert, Smart ID, Toyota Material Handling Romania, VP Group.

E-commerce, the catalyst for the future development of the courier market
Privatization, a prerequisite for transforming the Romanian Post into a competitive and efficient company
From walking couriers and undeveloped systems in early 90, when the courier business started its evolution in Romania, to innovations that include drones as couriers, fast packing systems or software applications to facilitate communication between customers and couriers, all these have been discusses during the first conference exclusively dedicated to this sector – Courier&Postal Services Forum 2014 - organized by GOVNET Conferences on March 17, 2014 at the Athenee Palace Hilton in Bucharest.
The performance and progress recorded by this segment of the economy are supported by complementary factors, as well: “It is important for carriers to consider that safety, fuel efficiency and longevity impact the total cost of operations. And this is why Michelin provides carriers more benefits in a single tyer and custom solutions for supporting them developing their business”, Ciprian Martin, Sales Manager Truck Tyres – Michelin Romania, premium partner of the Forum, stated.
The Romanian Post was also in the foreground - there have been discussed the challanges of its privatization expected to be completed by the end of the year and that stands as a prerequisite for increasing competitiveness and becoming an efficient company, the issues with the company’s debt, as well as the availability of the company for the Romanian Post brand to be operated under franchise – Romanian Post Partner.
The Courier&Postal Services Forum 2014 will be organized at the Athenee Palace Hilton Hotel in Bucharest, Le Diplomate Ballroom.
