Mondial Relay expands logistics services to the Netherlands

Mondial Relay expands logistics services to the Netherlands

In addition to the relatively large e-commerce markets in the UK and Germany, e-commerce in other countries has also begun to emerge and be discovered by more investors. For example, in the Netherlands, the logistics company Mondial Relay recently decided to conduct business locally.

 

Mondial Relay is one of the many e-commerce logistics companies in Europe , and has cooperated with many e-commerce platforms including Amazon and eBay. Currently, its service scope covers 90,000 online retailers in Europe, such as Belgium, France, Spain, Portugal and Luxembourg, and it has 58,000 logistics bases in Europe.

 

Just a few months ago, Mondial Relay was acquired by InPost , another leading European logistics company founded in Poland in 1999. InPost has a network of parcel lockers in Poland, the UK and Italy , and has been expanding its European market over the years.

 

Rafał Brzoska, CEO of InPost, also stated that “this is a strategically significant acquisition. By leveraging Mondial Relay’s market position in Europe, we can serve our customers more efficiently and conveniently. We will also redefine last-mile delivery with our practical actions, and we hope to become Europe’s leading logistics service provider in the future.”

 

In recent years, e-commerce in the Netherlands has grown rapidly, even faster than in France and Belgium. The number of international freight from the Netherlands has also been increasing, with cross-border parcel transportation increasing by nearly 42% last year. Seeing the development potential of the Netherlands, Mondial Relay began to enter the local market, claiming to provide faster and cheaper services.

 

Although the Netherlands is a small country, it has a high degree of economic openness and is very suitable for developing international trade. In 2020, the output value of e-commerce in the Netherlands reached 26.6 billion euros, which was a significant increase compared to 2019. But surprisingly, local online shopping is more popular in travel, communication electronics, etc., and clothing accounts for a small proportion.

 

But at present, the Dutch still prefer to use local e-commerce platforms, the most commonly used one is Bol.com. Amazon entered the local market relatively late and is still in a development stage, but this also shows that there is still a lot of market space to be developed locally.

 

Although the market is small, it is a challenge but can also be seen as an opportunity.
