INPOST

Company Description

InPost operates Europe's largest network of automated parcel lockers—the yellow machines you may have seen in shopping centers, gas stations, and residential areas where you can pick up or drop off packages 24/7 without waiting for a delivery driver. The company has revolutionized e-commerce delivery in Poland and is now expanding aggressively across Europe. The business model is elegantly simple: instead of delivering packages to individual homes (expensive and often unsuccessful when nobody's home), InPost delivers multiple packages to one locker location. Customers receive a code on their phone and pick up their package whenever convenient. This approach is cheaper for retailers, more convenient for consumers, and better for the environment with fewer delivery vehicles on the road. Founded in 1999 by Polish entrepreneur Rafał Brzoska, InPost grew from a domestic courier service into Europe's leading out-of-home delivery platform. The company operates nearly 90,000 collection points (including about 47,000 automated locker machines) across nine countries including Poland, the UK, France, and the Benelux. In 2024, InPost delivered over 1.1 billion parcels—a 22% increase from the prior year. Headquartered in Kraków, Poland with approximately 7,800 employees, InPost is listed on Euronext Amsterdam. The company generated €2.6 billion in revenue in 2024, with over half now coming from outside Poland following rapid European expansion. Under founder-CEO Brzoska's leadership, InPost continues adding thousands of new locker machines annually, building the physical infrastructure for Europe's e-commerce future.
