DEERFIELD, IL — The U.S. Postal Service recognized Discover Financial Services at the National Postal Forum with its 2014 Partnership for Growth Award. A select group of postal customers are acknowledged for their contributions to the continued success of the mailing industry at the National Postal Forum every year.
“This award is a tribute to Discover for finding new ways to use the mail to drive significant business results and mail growth,” said U.S. Postal Service Chief Marketing Officer Nagisa Manabe. “It is for the concerted effort Discover has had in working with the U.S. Postal Service to enhance the value of mail and helped to make our business partnership successful.”
The prestigious award represents the Postal Service’s dedication to recognizing innovation in a rapidly evolving technology environment.
