Qatar Post has acquired an additional 40% stake in e-commerce platform Turkish <\/strong> Souq<\/strong>, a JV it established with Turkish postal service PTT in 2018, Doha News<\/a> reports, citing Turkish daily Hurriyet<\/a>. The reports did not clarify the size of the stake Qatar Post now has in the JV or the value of the transaction. However, the JV was previously \u201cowned equally\u201d between PTT and Qatar Post, according to an earlier Qatari Transport Ministry statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The move follows Turkish President Recep Erdogan's recent visit to Qatar <\/strong> as part of his tour of Gulf nations, which also included Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and aimed at fostering economic collaborations and attracting investments. <\/p>\n
