Changes to InPost Services
InPost will remain under the same leadership, founder and chief executive Rafat Brzoska, and branding, operating from their headquarters in Poland.
FedEx Corporation’s new involvement in InPost will not affect the functioning of current InPost services, it is the hope that with access to more resources, InPost will be able to grow the system they’ve already laid out.
With leadership remaining in Poland with Brzoska, FedEx’s support will simply allow for InPost’s plans for innovation to continue with even greater success. Brzoska, in collaboration with FedEx Corporation, is planning to expand InPost lockers across the UK and Europe.
Currently the UK is home to around 14,000 lockers, which InPost hopes to expand to around 30,000. Raj Subramaniam, chief executive at FedEx, speaks highly of the expansion, noting that “FedEx has a global network…” whilst “InPost has a strong and successful presence in Europe’s out-of-home delivery segment.”, putting the partnership in a great position to support growth.
What Does This Mean for Parcel2Go Senders?
As the deal goes through, hopefully by the end of 2026, UK senders can expect increased InPost accessibility.
There’s good news for international sellers as well, with InPost looking to expand in its existing markets in France, Spain, Portugal, and Benelux. Though there are currently no plans to target new markets, this collaboration will have an incredible impact on accessible shipping across Europe.
