Parcel Pending by Quadient Co-op Main

The partnership to supply Parcel Pending by Quadient lockers aligns Co-op’s footprint in the heart of local communities with the continued growth in consumer demand for safe, secure and convenient parcel lockers. It is a growing network of lockers used for deliveries and returns from significant carriers, including Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, and UPS, as well as for new services like convenient key drop-offs with Keynest.

More than 30 Parcel Pending by Quadient lockers will initially be installed at Co-op stores, with the potential for the partnership to grow. The first lockers will be seen this month at Co-op stores in Bedford, Bradford, Guildford, Keighley, Liverpool, Stockport, Swinton and Telford.

George Hayworth, head of Q-Comm development at Co-op, said: “Safe, secure and convenient parcel lockers are one of the ways in which we make things easier and deliver enhanced convenience for our member-owners and customers. With our stores conveniently located in high streets and transport hubs, university campuses and residential developments, parcel lockers can help local residents and time-pressed consumers pick up or return parcels at times convenient to them.”
