Uniting Divided Cyprus Through Excellence In Parcel Delivery

Greece and Turkey have been in conflict for nearly half a century over the destiny

of the island of Cyprus, yet some parts of the country have been a shining example of prosperity under the European Union. The country is no stranger to resisting outside control, having for years fought against British rule before independence was achieved in 1960.

Ever since then, the Greek Cypriot majority has fought its Turkish Cypriot rivals for complete control of the island. Talks at the United Nations in 2008 aimed at ending the hostilities, however, have dragged on without a resolution being reached.

However, as a full EU member, sending a parcel to Cyprus is made much more straightforward. The Greek sector of the island uses the Euro as its currency and, in common with many of the other countries on the continent, has streamlined regulations governing trade with fellow EU countries.

Tourism drives much of the economy, but there is also considerable activity in gypsum and cement production, ship repair and refurbishment and food and drink processing. Important crops include citrus fruits, barley, grapes, olives and miscellaneous vegetables.

The UK is, after Greece and Italy, the countrys biggest trade partner, accounting for nearly nine per cent of all imports, while Cyprus exports nearly double the proportion of its products to Greece about 20 per cent than it does to the UK. That has not stopped the continuing development of a thriving ex-pat community, attracted by a lifestyle which incorporates the best of Mediterranean living and combines it with a substantial British heritage.

And there is a considerable British military presence on the island, which is charged with keeping the two main ethnic groups apart. Added to the many ex-pats who have gone on to establish their own businesses, this means that parcel delivery to Cyprus from the UK is always in great demand.
