Servicios Postales Nacionales is the company which operates as Colombia's official postal service under the name 4-72. The company assumed operations from the liquidated state company Adpostal in late 2006.[1] In addition to providing both national and international mail service and express courier service, 4-72 also facilitates postal payment services, among other services.[2] The name 4-72 derives from the simplified coordinates of the geographic center of Colombia.[3] It is associated with the Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications.
