The Swedish parcel service "Instabox" is now also starting shipping in Germany.

In addition to speed, the start-up relies on “green delivery” - and declares war on DHL and co.

Stockholm - A Swedish company wants to conquer Germany.

This time, however, it is not about the furniture, but about the German mail order market.

The Swedish delivery start-up "Instabox" could in the future make strong competition to the large shipping service providers DHL, Hermes and Co.

"Instabox" wants to conquer the German mail order market

"Instabox" will start shipping to and within Germany at the beginning of 2022 and is pursuing major goals: "We want to deliver on the same day in Germany as well," Instabox founder Alexis Priftis told

Wirtschaftswoche

. "Germany is one of the largest markets in Europe, it is also a very competitive market," he continued. "But we are confident that consumers in Germany will appreciate our service."

Among other things, Instabox wants to set up its own parcel stations where consumers can pick up their orders themselves.

In the first year, around 1000 parcel stations would be aimed for in Germany.

Initially, the offer should be available in Hamburg, Berlin and the Rhineland, and later also elsewhere in the country.

According to the information, the first logistics centers are to be built in Düsseldorf and Berlin.

In addition to the fast delivery, which so far only Amazon offers, the start-up from Stockholm relies on a "green delivery", as

reports.

According to this, deliveries within Germany should be made entirely without fossil fuels.

The company has already won over a number of large contract partners.

Instabox will deliver packages from H&M, IKEA and Amazon.
