Independent parcel carrier Yodel has partnered with InPost to provide last-mile delivery services in the UK. As part of the agreement, Yodel will handle hundreds of thousands of parcels through the InPost Locker-to-Door service.
Yodel will provide last-mile delivery of parcels from InPost lockers to customers’ addresses, and customers will be able to track their delivery status using the InPost app.
Mike Hancox, CEO at Yodel, said, “This partnership with InPost represents an exciting new step in expanding our presence in the fast-growing out-of-home (OOH) sector. InPost’s locker network provides choice and flexibility for customers who are sending and receiving parcels. The partnership combines InPost’s OOH expertise with Yodel’s decades-long legacy of last-mile parcel deliveries.
“As second-hand marketplaces increasingly grow in popularity, so too will the demand for customer-to-customer parcel deliveries. By joining forces with InPost, we can continue to respond to market demand and provide a wide-ranging service offering, meeting all customer needs.”
Neil Kuschel, CEO at InPost UK, added, “This announcement builds on the significant commercial growth that InPost has achieved in the UK. We are committed to developing additional services with the capacity to deliver them to win in the UK, as well as serving the B2C market at a faster rate as more customers discover the benefits of delivery from and to our lockers.”
