Evri has announced plans to grow its Out of Home network of ParcelShops and lockers to 25,000 by 2030.
To support this growth, Evri is investing more than £50 million to launch an owned, in-house network of smart lockers that bring new functionality to the consumer experience. Evri will roll out 10,000 lockers as part of its network expansion to support its continued growth with the UK’s leading retailers and marketplaces.
Evri currently has a network of more than 10,000 ParcelShops and lockers, which includes its independent shop network, Post Office branches, and corporate partners such as Co-op. Its partnerships and investment will more than double this by 2030, with Parcelshops and locker locations set to grow to 25,000 – hitting the 2,000 locker milestone before Christmas 2025.
The announcement follows a 500 per cent year-on-year increase in locker usage, a trend which is anticipated to continue.
Martijn de Lange, CEO, Evri, said: “We are committed to offering greater delivery choices for the consumers, retail clients, and businesses that we serve. This major multi-million-pound investment will establish one of the UK’s largest pick-up, drop-off networks as part of our mission to become the UK’s premier parcel delivery business.”
He added: “Our expanding network of locations is shaping the future of parcel delivery in the UK with smart technology and greater accessibility.”
