Viaposte listed on the Upela platform
Viaposte recently set up a partnership with the Upela transport platform. The freight forwarder is visible on the online platform via the V-UNIT offer, which provides transport of 1 to 3 pallets from France to arrival points in France and Europe.
What is Upela?
Upela.com is a platform that allows you to compare the offers of the world's leading express transport companies and to send letters, parcels or pallets in a simplified way and at negotiated costs of up to 75% off for professionals.
Viaposte, through this new partnership, adds to the list of more than 15 leading carriers. Thanks to partners such as Viaposte, Upela wishes to support and accompany its SME and VSE customers in their activities, particularly with the acceleration of e-commerce and the emergence of new consumer requirements.
The health crisis has intensified the growth of e-commerce considerably, with sales of products on the Internet enjoying an estimated 32% increase. According to Fevad, there were 1.84 billion online transactions in the last 12 months.
The trend accelerated in the last quarter of 2020 : during the festive season, Colissimo faced a major challenge with 4 million parcels to be delivered per day.
A solution adapted to the growth of e-commerce
Specialising in BtoB and BtoC shipments, Upela offers a range of services from carriers who are themselves experts in their field: Colissimo, a key player in the distance selling and e-commerce market, as well as Mondial Relay, which specialises in relay point shipments, and UPS and DHL, the world's leading express transport companies.
"Upela is constantly looking for new logistics partners in order to offer to our customers a competitive, high-quality and comprehensive transport service. We are very happy to be able to count on Viaposte's expertise to enrich our pallet shipping offer." Giancarlo Izzo, Upela's Partnership Manager.
