Zelostech and Pos Malaysia Launch Malaysia’s 1st Autonomous Postal Logistics POC; Reinforcing Zelostech’s Position as the Global Partner of Choice for Postal Automation
KUALA LUMPUR, 21 January 2026 – Zelostech, a global leader in autonomous logistics technology, today announced a strategic collaboration with Pos Malaysia Berhad (“Pos Malaysia”) and Autonomous Logistic Solutions Sdn. Bhd. (ALS) with the launch of Malaysia’s first autonomous vehicle (AV) Proof of Concept (PoC) dedicated to postal and logistics operations.
The launch event was officiated in the presence of senior government and industry leaders, including YB Datuk Fahmi Fadzil, Minister of Communications, Tan Sri Syed Faisal Albar, Chairman of Pos Malaysia Berhad, Charles Brewer, Group Chief Executive Officer of Pos Malaysia Berhad, Terry Zhou, Managing Director of Zelostech, and Alan Chong, Managing Director of Autonomous Logistic Solutions (ALS).
The PoC marks a significant milestone in Malaysia’s journey toward smart and sustainable logistics, while further strengthening Zelostech’s position as the preferred autonomous logistics partner for postal operators worldwide. More than a commercial deployment, this collaboration reflects deep alignment between Zelostech, national postal operators, and regional regulators. Following the successful implementation and partnerships across key markets, including Singapore, Japan, Korea, and the Middle East, the Malaysia PoC represents another strategic milestone in Zelostech’s expanding global postal footprint.
The AV PoC supports Pos Malaysia’s ESG commitments and digital transformation agenda, demonstrating how advanced automation can enable greener, smarter, and more efficient logistics operations. The trial will be conducted in phases, beginning at Pos Malaysia’s National Mail Centre (NMC), and will serve as a foundation for future expansion into broader operational and public-road environments.

This project underscores our commitment to shaping the future of smart postal logistics while driving regulatory alignment and commercial adoption throughout Southeast Asia."
Zelostech’s selection for the Malaysia postal AV PoC builds on a growing track record of global deployment milestones. To date, Zelostech has achieved the following:
- Singapore: Zelostech has secured public road operating approvals in Singapore, enabling autonomous logistics vehicles to operate in regulated urban environments, and established a strategic partnership with Singapore Post to advance multi-scenario autonomous logistics pilots.
- Dubai, UAE: Zelostech has formed strategic collaborations in Dubai with the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) and postal partners, reflecting deep engagement with regional regulators and smart mobility ecosystems.
- Austria, EU: Zelostech has completed its first European deployment in Austria, meeting stringent EU requirements for safety, compliance, and data protection, and laying the foundation for broader regional expansion.
As of today, more than 16,000 Zelostech autonomous logistics vehicles are in active operation worldwide, serving high-frequency, mission-critical logistics scenarios.
The global logistics landscape is at a tipping point, moving beyond mere experimentation toward full-scale commercial autonomy. At Zelostech, we are no longer just validating technology; we are deploying the future. By transitioning from pilots to global-scale integration, we are redefining the standards of postal logistics and cementing our position as the global partner of choice for postal automation.
