Expandeco acquires Pošta bez hranic on its way to build a pan-European platform
We at Expandeco, a leading provider of e-commerce expansion services, are pleased to announce the acquisition of 100% of the Czech logistics company Pošta bez hranic. This strategic move, which comes at the time of Expandeco's 10th anniversary, strengthens our position in the European market and enables us to offer broader and more comprehensive services for smoother expansion across Europe.
Expanding services and geographic reach
With more than 14 years of experience, Pošta bez hranic provides parcel services to all countries of the European Union. In addition to physical transportation, it also provides data connectivity to more than 30 carriers and nearly 150,000 dispensing points.
With this connection through one robust platform covering both companies' services, Expandeco enables e-shops to expand more efficiently and quickly into foreign markets.
This acquisition marks a significant milestone in our ten-year history. By joining forces with Post Without Borders, we are able to offer our clients comprehensive solutions for their growth across Europe, fulfilling our vision to become a leader in e-commerce support internationally.
A strategic vision for the future
Expandeco plans to continue its expansion and extend its services to other countries in Europe. With this acquisition, the company will be able to serve more than 1,200 new customers and process more than 3 million shipments per year.
As part of its long-term vision, Expandeco wants to build a one-stop shop where e-shops can find all the services they need to enter new markets - from localisation and customer support to a complete logistics solution.
I am glad that we have a unique opportunity to take Pošta bez hranic a step further. By sharing know-how and expanding our service portfolio, we can offer our clients services that they have previously outsourced elsewhere.
Scaling up via Crowdberry
The acquisition of Pošta bez hranic was made thanks to a successful investment round via the Crowdberry investment platform. This collaboration enabled Expandeco to obtain the necessary resources for strategic development and further strengthen its position as a leader in e-commerce support. The investment demonstrates the company's potential through the trust it has gained from more than 150 investors from Slovakia and the Czech Republic, and its ability to bring value to the common European market.
By combining our expertise and the logistical capabilities of Pošta bez hranic, we can serve our clients with services that have been difficult to implement to date. Our platform will not only allow e-shops to expand more easily, but also to be more efficient, reduce logistics costs and deliver products to customers faster. This acquisition will set new standards in B2B e-commerce and help smaller and medium-sized businesses compete with the big players in the market.
