Press release by SmartPOST, the Development Fund's portfolio company SmartPOST set about to build a network of self-servicing ‘post offices' in the summer of 2008. The web of self-servicing automatic parcel terminals now covering the whole of Estonia has been designed to service mainly the clients of mail order catalogues and Internet vendors. The equipment based on cutting-edge technologies allows customers to receive the products that they have ordered fast and conveniently. Likewise, modern technology also provides an opportunity to offer a more favourable alternative to the services of the national postal company Eesti Post. A client who has ordered goods will receive a code via a text message on his or her cell phone and via an e-mail. When this code is entered into the parcel terminal's computer, the client will be able to collect the merchandise. Parcel terminals have been installed in shopping centres across Estonia so as to spare the clients the trouble of having to spend extra time on collecting the goods that they have ordered. |
So far 31 parcel terminals have been installed and SmartPOST's network is available in all counties. The network has been tested and pilot projects have been successfully carried out and currently all companies have the opportunity to hook up with the service over the Internet at the following address: www.smartpost.ee/eteenindus. The respective video presentation can be viewed here: Smartpost OÜ is a logistics company which aims to make the delivery of goods purchased from distant selling companies, i.e. mainly on the Internet or by mail as fast and convenient as possible.
