How does e-PAQ work?

For e-tailers large and small, we take care of the international logistics (sending your parcels from the UK to 220 destinations), and our delivery partners in each country handle the final-mile delivery. We work with 100's of best in class postal and parcel partners, and you just need an account with us.

 

Why is this better?

Most parcel and postal companies around the world do not have operations in the UK, they focus on delivery in their country or region. We do the work to connect you to their delivery services (with our IT, transport, and negotiated rates), and because they are familiar to your shopper, reliable, and affordable, it is proven to boost conversion rates and customer experience!

 

Why haven't you seen Asendia before?

We specialise in cross-border delivery solutions for e-commerce businesses like these. We don't ship parcels for consumers or handle deliveries to UK addresses, so you won't see our branding everywhere (but our parent companies are well known internationally). We have a large International Parcel Processing Centre at Heathrow and a fleet of vehicles that collect from retailers and fulfilment centres.
