Triangle was able to successfully launch its Postal Benchmarking Club during the recent UPU Strategy Conference in Dubai.

The inaugural group of small and medium sized Post Offices, ranging from Malta to South Africa, decided that the initial aims and objectives should be modest and that it was important to obtain some quick wins 'in starting to share best practice across the postal world'.

The Postal Benchmarking Club will meet for the first time in the New Year via telephone conferencing, chaired by John Modd, Triangle Management Services’ Director of Mail. Triangle will be coordinating and developing the Club and is expected in time to expand the group into various sub-divisions of interest. The initial fee will be US $5,000 for founder members in the first year.

''Triangle is a long established research company based in the UK but operating worldwide, and is well placed to develop this much needed initiative for the mail and postal world'', said Paul Jackson, Chairman of Triangle. ''We will be commissioning research where appropriate, and we are confident that this important new venture will attract a sizeable membership that will grow as the word spreads and more Post Offices become involved.''
