“The joint business arrangement represents a tremendous commitment to customer service and satisfaction by both brands,” said Pete Pierce, who has owned the local Postal Connections in Bend at 2660 NE Highway 20 since 1998 and who was recently awarded the 2016 Top Sales Award for the entire Postal Connections franchise network. “The world’s largest retailer is seeking to improve convenience for its customers. At Postal Connections, we are constantly evolving our business to ensure that customers are receiving top-notch services that make their lives easier.”
The new Postal Connections Expressin Redmond’s Wal-Mart SuperCenter is the brand’s second location in the city. There are currently three full service Postal Connections locations in the Redmond-Bend Area. In addition to the Postal Connections on Highway 20 in Bend there is a store at 61149 South Highway 97. Redmond also has a Postal Connections at 916 Southwest Rimrock Rd., which is known for high levels of personalized service.

The Postal Connections stores within the giant retailer will offer convenient access to postal products, shipping with the leading carriers, freight, printing, creative services for print, copying, fax, passport photos, notary, shredding and other services. Currently, Postal Connections stores are adding iSOLD It on eBay as a sales assistance service for customers to drop off their items that are sold online with all the work being done by Postal Connections. Customers are sent a check for the proceeds when sold.
This arrangement is part of a tenant agreement signifying Postal Connections’ remarkable franchise growth initiative aimed at extending the company’s presence by the end of 2017. Postal Connections stores have a reputation for high levels of customer service, which the company plans to add inside Wal-Mart SuperCenters. Beginning April 2017, in addition to Redmond, Postal
