Already last year the biggest parcel machine network will get 72 additional parcel machines. 

Throughout the Baltics Omniva has installed 246 parcel machines in more than 120 cities and towns. With a total number of over 28 000 parcel lockers Omniva has established the biggest parcel machine network in the Baltics. “We already have the biggest parcel machine network in the Baltics, yet we are surely going to expand it even further in all the Baltic states,” promised Arumeel.

Arumeel told that since e-commerce is international and global, then more and more business clients are seeing the Baltics as one connected market, which ought to have one all-reaching parcel service as well. “Our customers are increasingly asking for the parcel solution to be available in the whole of the Baltics and it is our goal to take the service as close to our customers as possible,” explained Arumeel.

Arumeel confirms that Omniva’s operations in the Baltics are advancing rapidly. “Few years ago we decided to treat the Baltics as an integral market. As a result only Omniva is currently able to provide such comprehensive parcel service solution that covers all Baltic countries,” said Arumeel.

Next year Omniva is planning to open their parcel machine network to other partners to encourage already rapid development of e-commerce. “Altough opening our parcel machine network to our partners might seem as we are giving away our competitive advantage, then we rather believe in constructive cooperation than in building separate competitive infrastructure. That is why we decided to take the first step towards this cooperation. 

Opening the parcel machine network to partners requires a number of software improvements, that enable partners to use Omniva’s parcel machines quickly and easily. “Our mission is to make parcel service for the client as comfortable as possible. Today over 2 million people trust their parcels in our hands. Expanding and opening our parcel machine network is another step towards a more simple and comfortable parcel service,” explained Arumeel.

According to Arumeel, the constant growth of parcel volumes in the parcel machines confirm that their popularity is still steadily rising everywhere in the Baltics. “Because of their round-the-clock availability and speed of service, parcel machines have recently become the most preferred option for sending and receiving parcels,” added Arumeel.
