The transaction is perfectly aligned with Alsendo’s buy-and-build strategy, aimed at consolidating the fragmented shipping solutions market and expanding cross-border services in Europe. It strengthens Alsendo’s position as one of the most dynamic Polish tech companies operating in the logistics sector. “At Alsendo, our ambition is to become Europe’s leading delivery management and shipping platform. That’s why we are steadily building our position in the logistics technology market. With the experience gained in the competitive markets of Central and Eastern Europe, we are ready to scale our model in Western Europe. Entering the Italian market confirms the effectiveness of this strategy, and our partnership with Spedire is just the beginning of our pan-European journey,” says Magdalena Magnuszewska, CEO of Alsendo. The Italian parcel market – with an annual volume of about 1.1 billion, similar to Poland – remains highly fragmented, particularly in the shipping platform segment. It is dominated by local players, with Poste Italiane holding the leading market share, and the logistics infrastructure is still developing, also driven by InPost’s launch in Italy in November 2024. The share of PUDO points and parcel lockers remains significantly lower than in CEE. Additionally, Italy shows a relatively high penetration of international shipments – around 13.5% – indicating solid demand for cross-border services, which are a core pillar of Alsendo’s technology-driven expansion. “The Italian market is still in the early stages of APM development, but its scale and the large number of international e-retailers (e.g. in the fashion and beauty industries) create ideal conditions for the further expansion of our digital solutions, such as Innoship and BusinessPro, along with our cross-border services. Spedire fits perfectly into our development vision,” adds Magnuszewska. Spedire.com and SpedirePRO are innovative logistics solutions created by Esite, which has been operating in the market for over 10 years and handles more than 400,000 shipments per year. The platforms collaborate with leading carriers such as UPS, FedEx, InPost, and Poste Italiane, offering a comprehensive range of services – from pick-up and delivery point operations to cash-on-delivery and triangulated shipments – all supported by extensive customer service. Designed to meet the needs of both individuals and businesses, they play a key role in helping thousands of Italian companies manage their national and international shipping operations. “Joining Alsendo Group is a natural step in our evolution. In recent years, we’ve focused on technological innovation and broadening our range of services. Now, by becoming part of a larger group with international expertise, we’re in a stronger position to scale our business, strengthen our presence in the Italian market, and offer even greater value to our customers – especially business clients who rely on advanced, reliable shipping solutions,” comments Luca Lorenzini, CEO and founder of Spedire.com e SpedirePRO. Over the past three years, Alsendo has completed a series of acquisitions in the CEE region (including Lithuania’s Siusk24 and Cargobooking, Czechia’s Zaslat, and Romania’s Innoship and Ecolet), on top of leading position in Poland. Today, the group spans across the entire EU, providing hundreds of thousands of business clients – across nearly 10 European markets – access to integrated technological and operational last-mile logistics solutions. Entering the Italian market marks another step in Alsendo’s international expansion, made possible by the strategic support of Abris Capital Partners, which has been the company’s majority shareholder since 2020. Esite – developed in partnership with Triboo S.p.a, one of Italy’s leading e-commerce and digital services groups – brings not only local expertise to the group, but also a technological backbone. The synergy of competencies and a shared vision for market consolidation means Alsendo is taking a confident step toward building a next-generation integrated pan-European logistics platform.
