UK’s Hurricane to support Emirates Post’s eCommerce expansion

Emirates Post has entered a partnership with UK-based Hurricane Commerce, a provider of secure cross-border eCommerce solutions, as part of its ongoing efforts to ramp up its global eCommerce services and ensure the highest levels of customer satisfaction.

The partnership is in line with Emirates Post’s goal of becoming a multinational business-to-consumer (B2C) post and parcel service provider and contribute to enhancing the UAE’s position as a leading global hub for trade and logistics.

Through the partnership, Hurricane Commerce will enable Emirates Post to apply leading data solutions for its international business unit to develop modern services to customers.

This also coincides with Emirates Post’s ongoing investment in digitisation across all its systems and processes to accelerate its transformation into a global commercial operator.

Peter Somers, CEO of Emirates Post, said: “This partnership is part of our investment in our international parcels expansion as we strive to become a strategic gateway for cross-border eCommerce traffic.

“This is one of our top priorities at Emirates Post, and to achieve this will require that we work with the best in the industry, hence our partnership with Hurricane Commerce. The knowledge and experience of the Hurricane team and the quality of their data solutions will enable us to take a monumental leap towards fulfilling our cross-border eCommerce growth strategy.”

David Spottiswood, Co-Founder of Hurricane Commerce, added that Emirates Post sees the importance of applying data solutions not only to ensure flawless cross-border trade, but also to provide its customers with the best services and experience.

“With the global eCommerce industry implementing new rules and regulations at an ever-increasing rate, such an action taken recently by Emirates Post has never been more relevant,” he said.
