The Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, has commended the management and staff of Ghana Post for their renewed energy, teamwork, and strong performance, describing the company’s transformation as a reflection of effective leadership and unity.
Addressing management, staff, and union representatives at a Staff Durbar held at Ghana Post’s headquarters, George said the company’s recent progress demonstrates how collaboration and shared purpose can drive institutional renewal.
“It is clear to me that in Ghana Post, things are not just going well, they are going very well,” he remarked.
He attributed Ghana Post’s success to an improved relationship between management and the workers’ union, which he described as “the recipe for productivity and excellence.”
George encouraged the organization to modernize its operations with a focus on sustainability and environmental responsibility. He urged management to consider introducing electric bikes and vehicles for last-mile delivery, stressing the need to reduce the company’s carbon footprint.
“We must begin to think green,” he said. He also challenged Ghana Post to broaden its vision beyond the domestic market by developing international delivery routes to boost revenue and global visibility. Citing Ghanaian entrepreneurs exporting local products abroad, he said similar innovation could help the postal service diversify its operations and remain resilient.
“We need to begin exploring new delivery routes, Japan, the UK, and elsewhere,” he advised. “That’s how Ghana Post can diversify and build resilience.”
George congratulated Ghana Post on its election to the Council of Administration of the Universal Postal Union (UPU), describing the achievement as a milestone that places the company among the world’s leading postal institutions.“You are flying the red, gold, and green high,” he said.
In her remarks, Ghana Post Managing Director, Rita Sraha, outlined the company’s operational milestones, including the delivery of over 72,000 new chip-embedded passports across the country, along with bank cards, driver’s licenses, and other secure documents. She said Ghana Post is also partnering with e-commerce platforms to expand parcel delivery and increase revenue.
The company’s efforts have earned it global recognition, including the 2025 Quality Management Silver Award and the 2024 Customer Care Award, where it ranked second in Africa and sixth globally.
“Our progress shows what teamwork and discipline can achieve,” Sraha said. “Together, we will continue building a Ghana Post that stands tall across Africa and beyond.”
The minister’s visit and commendation highlighted Ghana Post’s steady transformation into a modern, technology-driven postal and logistics service, one balancing national identity, innovation, and sustainability in an increasingly digital economy.
