PostNet Neighborhood Business Center Serves Local Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses

Local Entrepreneur Opened New PostNet Location in Tampa on Dec. 2, 2015

Local businessman and immigrant entrepreneur Carlos Telleria is on a mission to help Tampa’s small businesses with the recent opening of a new PostNet Neighborhood Business Center located at 10043 N. Dale Mabry Highway on December 2, 2015.

PostNet provides a suite of consultative, business-enhancing print, marketing and shipping solutions. The menu of services includes graphic design, full-service digital printing, direct mail, signage, document binding and finishing, and ancillary business services, like private mailbox rental and more. Unlike traditional postal and mailbox franchises, PostNet has strategic partnerships with all of the major logistics companies – UPS, FedEx, U.S. Postal Services, and DHL – offering a multi-carrier selection coupled with in-center professional packaging services to meet the specific shipping needs of its customers. In addition, with the brand’s bricks and clicks business model, PostNet in Tampa has both a physical retail storefront as well as an Online Print Center, offering customers the benefits of fast online transactions and/or traditional face-to-face service.

“I look forward to working with Tampa’s entrepreneurs and providing support to the overall growth and liveliness of our business community,” said Telleria, who recently migrated from Venezuela to pursue business ownership. “PostNet fills the void for convenient services like printing, shipping and graphic design that are essential to the success of small businesses.”

PostNet has nearly 700 franchises globally, and has successfully carved a niche as North America’s first and currently only Neighborhood Business Center.

“Our franchise partners understand the challenges and opportunities that are unique to small businesses in their communities because they are small business owners themselves,” said Steve Greenbaum, co-founder and CEO of PostNet. “Of course there are other providers that design, print and ship, but it’s our culture, the guidance and direction we provide small business owners and the ongoing partnerships we build with customers that makes the difference.”
