ARKANSAS — Post Offices across the nation are hosting events during the month of May to demonstrate how the U.S. Postal Service continues to create easy and affordable services designed to help small businesses grow.

This year the Postal Service is promoting its 2021 small business month theme “Your Business is Our Business” as we recognize the importance of supporting small businesses, the jobs they help create, and the quality of life they provide in every ZIP Code across the nation.

USPS District Manager Julie Gosdin said, “Your Business is Our Business” when it comes to helping small businesses grow. We offer numerous solutions to assist with marketing efforts such as Every Door Direct Mail and new and exciting mailing innovations for advertising, in addition to continuing to provide shipping solutions such as Priority Mail that help small businesses ship economically and confidently,” Gosdin added.

For more than two centuries, the Postal Service has been helping small businesses grow and supporting Main Streets everywhere through the highs and the lows. This year’s scheduled events are designed to address the unique needs of small businesses, even during these challenging times. At these events you’ll have the ability to:
