Following its successful Q1 financial results, InPost has announced a major milestone in the rollout of its out-of-home delivery and parcel locker solutions with the 7,000th locker installed in the UK.
According to the company, it is seeing “exceptional demand” from consumers and retailers nationwide for more parcel locker locations, underpinning its “aggressive” growth plans.
Neil Kuschel, UK CEO at InPost, explained, “We’ve seen significant demand for InPost lockers and thanks to this latest 7,000 milestone, we’ve now achieved a substantial 40% increase in locations since March last year. The locker market remains extremely strong, and we want to help our retail customers capitalize on this demand.
“Our aim is that InPost is ubiquitous and that every store has an InPost locker, and every UK consumer uses our lockers as part of their daily lives. So, this milestone is a big deal for us as it means we’re one step closer to making that happen.”
InPost’s recently released Q1 2024 results highlighted strong demand for parcel lockers, with UK parcel volumes more than doubling year-on-year to 17.2 million. So far in Q2, the business is already running at volume growth of approximately 20% at group level, with total international volume growing at an even faster rate than Q1.
