With its battery-powered Automated Parcel Lockers, the Danish technology company Swipbox offers customers the opportunity to build dense and cost-efficient locker networks and thus meet the increasing demand for out-of-home delivery.

Customers of parcel locker structures naturally include parcel service providers and e-commerce retailers, for whom Swipbox offers the opportunity to build dense and cost-efficient locker networks. The lockers enable them to meet the increasing demand for out-of-home delivery. This reduces delivery costs on the last mile, the particularly expensive last section of the delivery route. At the same time, CO₂ emissions are also reduced, while end customers gain a convenient option for receiving their consignments and posting parcels.

Leading European Platform

Funds advised by the investment company BU Bregal Unternehmerkapital with offices in Zug, Munich, Milan and London are now acquiring a majority stake in Swipbox. BU will reportedly support Swipbox as a long-term partner in accelerating its international expansion and further strengthening its position as the leading European platform for automated parcel lockers. Swipbox's management team is reportedly taking a stake in the company as part of the transaction and will continue to drive the company's long-term growth strategy.

BU is the ideal partner to strengthen Swipbox's platform and accelerate growth across Europe.

Jan C. von Backhaus, Chairman from INPS and Swipbox

Swipbox enables parcel service providers to set up parcel locker networks in close proximity to consumers. The lockers are easy to install, scalable and benefit from Swipbox's more than ten years of experience. With over 50,000 parcel lockers installed in more than 30 countries, Swipbox knows how to bring parcel delivery closer to customers—from the first pilot project to the nationwide roll-out.
