With 110,000 Pickup points in 28 countries in Europe as of end of April 2024, out-of-home delivery is a key pillar of our "Together & Beyond" strategic roadmap launched in 2021. Putting customer centricity at the core of our activity, we capitalise on our market knowledge to determine the right mix of parcel shops and lockers based on local cultural preferences and urban/rural landscapes.
In many European countries, we stand as one of the largest out-of-home players: France (18,000 Pickup points), Spain (6,000 points), Italy (8,800 points with Fermopoint), Germany (8,000 Pickup points), UK (11,000 Pickup points), and Scandinavia (11,000 points through our strategic partnership with the PostNord group). With the rapid growth of lockers in Europe, we now provide nearly 23,000 lockers (11,000 more than at the end of 2022). This trend is set to continue, with the share of lockers expected to grow in the coming years.

We place consumer expectations, specifically measured by our e-shopper barometer, at the heart of our innovation strategy. Among its latest innovations and developments, our team at Pickup launched multi-service lockers last year, enabling consumers and retailers to notably exchange fresh produce, reserve a locker to leave an item for a third party or drop-off a parcel for return, as well as solar-powered lockers in the last month. Another innovation under development is the fitting room concept at parcel collection points. This concept is currently being rolled out in Germany, Croatia and Poland.
