Bloq.it, the fastest-growing provider of smart locker networks technology in Europe, announced today a landmark partnership with InPost Group, Europe’s leading logistics provider for the e-commerce industry.
The agreement combines a multi-year commercial commitment to deploy more than 20,000 Bloq.it NEXT locker units across Europe, which includes a strategic small minority investment from InPost.
This partnership marks a major milestone for Bloq.it on its path to become the independent infrastructure layer for the Parcel Locker industry. By bringing together Bloq.it’s innovative locker technology and InPost’s expansive logistics network, the collaboration will unlock unprecedented opportunities for network growth and consumer convenience.
With this Partnership, InPost joins a growing list of leading industry players who already work with Bloq.it, including names like Vinted Go, GLS, and DHL.
Unlocking the Future of Out-of-Home Delivery
At the center of the agreement is NEXT, Bloq.it’s flagship off-grid locker unit. Powered by batteries, NEXT operates fully independent of the power grid or solar panels, making it possible to install lockers in thousands of previously inaccessible locations. Built with durability and a 10-year lifespan, NEXT represents a new standard for parcel locker design and sustainability.
The first NEXT lockers for InPost were already installed in France and the UK in July, with expansion to Italy, Portugal, and Spain planned before the end of 2025. Over the next five years, the rollout will accelerate across InPost’s key European markets.
Comprehensive Services for InPost’s Expansion
As part of the agreement, Bloq.it will deliver end-to-end services for the growth and management of InPost’s Automated Parcel Machine (APM) network. From design and deployment to tech-driven support and operational services, Bloq.it will ensure that InPost’s lockers are more efficient and scalable than ever.
Bloq.it is laser-focused on accelerating Europe’s shift to out-of-home delivery. Partnering with InPost allows us to roll out NEXT, our flagship off-grid locker, wherever people live and work, giving consumers true pick-up freedom.
This partnership also represents an important step toward our long-term goal: building a truly independent company, prepared for the next chapter in our journey, and who can serve all the customers in the market and help them accelerate their OOH plans.
