Bpost and Retail Partners Colruyt Group are joining forces to accelerate the rollout of parcel lockers accross SPAR stores.
This initiative marks the first rollout at this scale, reflecting both groups’ commitment for sustainable and accessible logistics.
By integrating parcel pick-up, sending and returns into everyday shopping locations, this partnership makes parcel services more convenient and seamlessly embedded in customers’ daily routines.
Around two thirds of Spar Colruyt Group have opted into the initiative, underlining the strong interest from independent shop owners. The rollout will be carried out progressively: around 120 SPAR Colruyt Group will be equipped with a Bbox parcel locker before the summer, representing approximately 60% of the network, with the remaining locations to follow by year-end.
Convenience integrated into everyday shopping
As e-commerce and returns continue to grow, customers increasingly expect delivery solutions that are flexible, close to home and easy to use. By installing Bbox parcel lockers at shops that are known and embedded in the neighborhood, bpost responds to this demand with a solution that fits seamlessly into daily life.
Customers can collect or send parcels at a time that suits them, combining postal services with their regular grocery shopping, without additional travel or waiting times.
Expanding a future-proof locker network
The rollout with Retail Partners Colruyt Group is part of Bpost’s wider ambition to bring a Bbox within a five-minute reach of every Belgian, expanding its network to nearly 3,500 automated parcel lockers by end of 2026, across streets, mobility hubs, workplaces and retail locations alike.
