Posta Romana has launched a new service, Postcollect, allowing customers to pick up their parcels at a preferred post office.

The postal operator, which made the collection service available in two post offices in the pilot stage, plans to extend it to more than 800 offices.

“The contract with eMAG is very important in Posta Romana’s strategy to expand its market share in online retail. We hope this partnership with the largest online retailer in Romania confirms the postal operator is able to quickly adapt to changes on the postal services market,” said Posta Romana general manager Alexandru Petrescu.

eMAG deliveries are tracked online and customers are notified via text message of their arrival and pick-up availability.
