Fortidia, a group specializing in global commerce solutions for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) and consumers, is strengthening its presence in Latin America, adding value in Mexico with Mail Boxes Etc., a global brand with more than 35 years of experience and a network of more than 2,600 centers worldwide, specializing in comprehensive local, national, and international shipping solutions.
“We are pleased to welcome MBE Mexico to the Fortidia Group among our so-called direct operating countries. We look forward to working together to further strengthen our offering of high-value solutions for customers in the Mexican market,” said Paolo Fiorelli, President and CEO of Fortidia.
