If it's a case of needing to group similar postal addresses Excel would not be the tool to use. Access or some other DB program would need to be used to query the data using the LIKE command with wild card, look up tables, etc.

What he COULD do is create a "Zone" column. I guess that would depend on how many address he had but.....

He could give each Region a number or letter. Then designate that number/letter to each address, then sort it by "zone" .
