Over the past three years, we’ve invested $1bn into new technology, facilities, our fleet and more people to help us deliver a better tomorrow.
Last year, we processed 2.3 billion items, and delivered more than 69 million articles internationally.
About us
Over our long history, our social purpose and commitment to the community has remained the same; to create connections and opportunities that matter to every Australian.
At the heart of every Australian community, our people are a regular presence to rely on. We've always looked for ways to link communities together and listen to what matters to them. We’ll always be there for Australians in need.

Supporting all Australians and our workforce
We provide services to many Australians, and regularly visit over 12.7 million delivery points across the country. This important role we play in our community also allows us to deliver much more than parcels and letters.
Supporting communities
Australia Post is at the heart of Australian communities, connecting people to each other and the world. Our Post Offices are a vital local hub and our role remains unchanged – to help communities thrive. Working in partnership with organisations like Beyond Blue, Australian Red Cross and the Indigenous Literacy Foundation, we’re helping communities to:
- improve mental health and wellbeing
- prepare for, recover from and respond to disaster
- improve children’s literacy.
As a government business enterprise Australia Post is self-funded, owned by all Australians.
Any profit we earn is either used to pay a dividend to our shareholder (the Australian Government) or reinvested in our assets and services.
We’re proud to be one of Australia’s most diverse workforces.
Our people represent 143 nationalities, 3% identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and 6.2% live with disability.
In the 2024 financial year we increased our own solar generation by 55%, while reducing our waste to landfill by 16% year on year. Our recycling rate has increased to 71% of total waste.
We have one of Australia’s largest retail networks with 4,198 Post Offices, including 2,500+ outside major cities.
As one of Australia's biggest supporters of small businesses, we're investing in new technology to help make sending easy with MyPost Business.
