The Namibia Post Ltd Group says it has successfully cushioned the continued decline in its traditional postal business by expanding its financial services operations and developing new revenue streams, even as letter volumes and post box usage continue to fall.
The Namibia Post Ltd Group has three business units, which together comprise NamPost Ltd (NamPost or the company). The Group includes NamPost Financial Brokers (Pty) Ltd (PostFin), a 100% owned subsidiary.
The state-owned postal operator reported that mail volumes remained at 5.9 million items in 2025, while post office box occupancy declined further to 45%, down from 50% in 2024 and significantly lower than the 90% recorded in 2016. Mail-related revenue also fell to N$78 million from N$83 million the previous year.
