InPost Parcel Machines
„ Parcelcels® InPost not only guarantee an extremely fast and reliable form of delivery, but above all create a completely new standard - the are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and it only takes a few seconds to receive a parcel through them. This is a real innovation on the delivery market for the e-commerce sector and, most importantly, a huge convenience for e-consumers. In 2014, the number of parcels handled by our devices was as much as 90.5% higher than in 2013, and comparing the results achieved over the last two years, we achieved a dynamism in their number of 440%. Paczkomaty ® InPost will always be superior to the convenience of a courier service and is more efficient. In my view, therefore, the key remains to work with by courier which will allow the creation of a completely new, multi-channel logistics model - as is the case with TNT Express, with whom we are working in Italy " - comments Rafał Brzoska, CEO of Integer.pl Group, the operator of the Paczkomat® InPost network.
There are already more than 1,300 Paczkomat® InPosts in Poland - the network has been expanded by 200 locations compared to the end of 2014. The decision to expand stems from the growing needs of residents of smaller towns and cities, who are increasingly eager to use the e-commerce offer, and aims to providing them with the possibility of collecting parcels 24/7 . Integer.pl Group intends to continue its expansion and will install a total of 600 new terminals in 2015.
Paczkomaty® InPost in 2014 once again broke records for popularity among Polish e-commerce users. The number of parcels delivered via terminals increased by more than 90.5% compared to 2013 and by 440% compared to 2012 . In the fourth quarter of 2014, InPost reached an agreement with Allegro for strategic cooperation in the delivery of products ordered online. Now, in the shipping options, each e-tailer can add new options: Allegro Paczkomaty InPost (PLN 7.99) and Allegro Polecony InPost (PLN 3.94). This is the cheapest form of delivery available - both for registered letter and parcel. In each of these options, customers are guaranteed a free return of the purchased goods.
