Why Postnet International? The rapid growth of the SOHO (small office/home office) market has been hard to ignore.

We have what you want, when you need it and we are here to help! Brand Image & Store Design A great brand stands out in a crowd. It conveys a unique image and fosters a sense of excitement that not only involves the customer experience, but extends to the creativity of the concept and organization. PostNet's GenNext store design is no different. The idea was to design our store in the same way that our brand speaks to consumers. “Fresh, creative, bright, open and inclusive” are just a few of the ways we describe PostNet and our store design. We wanted to create an environment that empowers customers to get what they need quickly and easily, so our design incorporates a bold new color scheme that elevates the perception of professionalism, comfort, and trust. Large graphics identify our main service categories. The design also offers flexibility to adapt to new technology offerings and ever-changing customer needs. High-quality modular fixtures, movable partitions and signage mounted on a track system serve to easily accommodate new business equipment and expanded product offerings. The PostNet Culture PostNet founders Steve Greenbaum and Brian Spindel attribute the company’s success to the hard work and effort of PostNet’s franchisees, an unwavering commitment to PostNet’s culture and core values, and a vibrant passion that is shared throughout the organization. PostNet's franchisee-inclusive culture and open channels of communication have enabled us to develop a powerful and competitive operating system fueled by the energy and enthusiasm of our franchisees, employees, and customers. It's a single, shared vision of success that inspires each and every member of the PostNet family to help each other achieve more.
