Background:

Postal Customer Council (PCC) events recognize the importance of supporting small businesses. The Greater New Orleans PCC is an independent board of USPS employees and mailing and shipping industry partners.

This council exists to benefit its members with networking together printers, mailers, shippers as well as providing opportunities to share Postal Service news and transparency.

For more than two centuries, the Postal Service has been helping small businesses grow and supporting Main Streets everywhere throughout the highs and the lows. These events are designed to address the unique needs of small businesses, even during these challenging times.

PCCs, created in 1961, are local organizations that help foster a close working relationship between USPS and commercial mailers with the goal of sharing information about postal products, programs, and services through an educational and collaborative environment.

The United States Postal Service is an independent federal establishment, mandated to be self-financing and to serve every American community through the affordable, reliable and secure delivery of mail and packages to 169 million addresses six and often seven days a week. Overseen by a bipartisan Board of Governors, the Postal Service is implementing a 10-year transformation plan, Delivering for America, to modernize the postal network, restore long-term financial sustainability, dramatically improve service across all mail and shipping categories, and maintain the organization as one of America’s most valued and trusted brands.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
