The End-of-Year Season – the Busiest Time for Online Retailers
The end-of-year season is the busiest time of the year for online retailers – orders come in record numbers, and customers expect fast and reliable deliveries. Posti increases its capacity to meet the demands of the season, ensuring that parcels and postcards are delivered on time.
Last year, during the peak season weeks, Posti delivered as many as 7 million parcels and 10 million Christmas cards, making sure that people across Finland received their deliveries without delay.
A Wide Network Ensures Smooth Deliveries
Posti’s extensive service point network keeps deliveries running smoothly even during the busiest weeks of the season.
With over 2,000 parcel machines, 1,090 service points, 165,000 parcel lockers, and additional temporary pick-up points opened for the season, parcels keep moving efficiently both near and far.
This year, Posti has also introduced new outdoor parcel lockers located at Hesburger restaurants around Finland. These easily accessible locations serve customers where they naturally move about – making pick-ups even more convenient.
Saturday Deliveries Bring Flexibility and Speed
Posti delivers parcels on Saturdays, both to pick-up points and directly to customers’ homes.
Shipments are delivered to around 650 popular pick-up locations, and home deliveries are available on Saturdays in approximately 370 postal code areas across Finland.
Saturday deliveries offer customers extra convenience and make even faster weekend deliveries possible.
You can check example texts for delivery options to highlight Saturday deliveries at your store’s checkout. The list of participating pick-up points is available at posti.fi/kartta.
