The Falkland Islands Government outsourced the management of the post and philatelic service to the newly established company Falklands Postal Service (FPS) Limited on 1st August 2014.
FPS Limited was established in July 2014 in time to take over the management of the post and philatelic service on behalf of the Falkland Islands Government on the 1st August 2014. The key function of the Philatelic service is the marketing and sales of Falkland Islands stamps.
The role of Post Master and the responsibility of postage rates, design and value of all stamp and philatelic products remains the responsibility of the Falkland Islands Government.
In order to be able to represent their customers they have two seats on the Stamp Advisory Committee filled by the Philatelic Sales Manager and Managing Director. The SAC are responsible for determining the subject, timing and format of both commemorative and definitive stamp issues for the Falkland Islands.
FPS Limited are also responsible for providing marketing and sales function for other Overseas Territories including South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands and British Antarctic Territory.
A new team was established to deliver a modernised service which over the period of the contract will include key changes (e.g. postal service will move to a 24hr mail access system, and the philatelic will provide an online shopping cart service).
FPS Limited staff is separated into two different functions, our Postal service team and our Philatelic service team all managed by Lindsay Bonner, Managing Director.
