The city of Calgary hosted the official opening of a new branch of Meest Canada, an international postal and logistics company specializing in the delivery of parcels, cargo, and money transfers between Canada, Ukraine, and more than 200 other countries around the world.
Meest employees welcomed the first customers who came to learn about the services and new opportunities for Ukrainians in Calgary.
A new step for the Ukrainian community
For over 30 years, Meest Canada has been helping to unite Ukrainians around the world by providing convenient services for sending parcels, transferring funds, and purchasing goods from abroad. The opening of the new office in Calgary was a response to the growth of the Ukrainian community in Alberta, which has been actively developing in recent years.
“This is not just a post office — it is part of home for Ukrainians in Canada,” said Meest representatives during the opening. “We want everyone to be able to quickly and safely send help to their relatives in Ukraine or receive parcels from their loved ones.”

“We strive to make our services even more accessible, especially for newly arrived Ukrainians who are starting a new life in Canada,” emphasized company representatives.
A symbolic moment for the community
For many Ukrainians, the opening of the new Meest branch was a landmark event. It is not only a service but also a form of community support, as the ability to quickly send items or aid home remains important even years after moving.
