The InPost invasion comes courtesy of a Polish business tycoon named Rafał Brzoska. (inset with profile below). The evidence of his grand plan in Canada can be seen outside Loblaws on Moore Ave. So Loblaws knows all about this project. So does Shell Canada and no doubt many other big corporations. There’s a locker in the Shell station in Summerhill on Yonge St. All across Toronto, and apparently Canada, a huge program of locker placement is proceeding quickly and smoothly. InPost parcel lockers are now, by the firm’s release, the biggest international network of parcel lockers providing “a fast and convenient method of shipping and collecting parcels around the clock, seven days a week, with no queues and at a convenient location.”
CORPORATE OWNER IS INTEGER.PL
On its website, the Polish firm says InPost has already introduced its parcel lockers in the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Poland, Ireland, Iceland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Russia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Colombia, Canada, Australia and Saudi Arabia. It says it plan was to have over 5,000 of parcel lockers across Europe, both Americas and the Middle East by the end of 2015. It is planning to deploy a further 4,000 such lockers. According to the release, development of the InPost parcel lockers network is being conducted by the easyPack company, in collaboration with the PineBridge Investments Fund. This is a subsidiary of Integer.pl Group headquartered in Krakow, Poland’s second largest city. On the Internet, the president and apparent genius behind InPost is Rafał Brzoska.
COMPETES WITH “MONOPOLIST” POSTAL SERVICE
The company describes Brzoska this way: “He created a nationwide network of door drops and addressed marketing materials distribution, turning Integer into the leader on the distribution market in Poland. InPost, which has been operating for just a few years, already competes successfully with the Polish postal services monopolist, Poczta Polska. has continued its dynamic expansion of the InPost parcel lockers network by increasing its reach in key European e-commerce markets including, amongst others, the UK and Italy. The company has also intensified its activity on other continents.”
