The employees and management of pakadoo will also be transferred. The pakadoo brand will be retained and the location in Böblingen will also remain. FP's Chairman of the Supervisory Board Dr. Alexander Granderath on the acquisition of pakadoo: "We are delighted to support FP on its digital journey and warmly welcome pakadoo to FP Digital Business Solutions."

pakadoo is now strengthening the Digital Business Solutions division at Francotyp-Postalia. Markus Ziegler, MD of pakadoo: "It is a great opportunity for us to be able to expand and complement the FP Digital Business Solutions portfolio with our digital solutions and parcel stations for last-mile logistics with immediate effect. This enables pakadoo to benefit from synergies, accelerate product development and drive forward internationalization."

"We want people to feel comfortable where they live and work". With this goal in mind, pakadoo has been developing sustainable digital last-mile solutions since 2015 that give parcel recipients more free time, make work and life easier and reduce traffic and emissions. The software-as-a-service solutions for receiving and managing incoming parcels and goods in companies and public institutions are also used in retail and city logistics in conjunction with provider-open parcel stations.

The acquisition of pakadoo gives FP access to a SaaS-based platform for the logistics of incoming parcels in companies, public institutions, retail and city logistics. In addition, pakadoo's software solutions in the area of e-commerce expand FP's TRAX SaaS solutions for internal logistics (Azolver). At the same time, FP Parcel Shipping expands pakadoo's offering for the shipment of parcels and goods, particularly outside Germany.

FP's CEO Carsten Lind: "Following the acquisition of Azolver in March 2022, pakadoo is a further step to expand and complement our digital solution portfolio in the growing parcel and e-commerce markets. We look forward to expanding the business together with the pakadoo team."
