Foxpost for Shopify

Why choose Foxpost for Shopify

Foxpost is Hungary's leading parcel locker delivery provider, founded in 2015. Since its inception, the company has grown to become the largest network of csomagautomata (parcel lockers) in Hungary, revolutionizing how Hungarian consumers receive their parcels. In 2024, Foxpost became part of the international Packeta Group, opening new opportunities for e-commerce businesses across Europe.

Extensive Pickup Point Network

Foxpost operates over 4,800 pickup points throughout Hungary, including:

• 3,100+ parcel lockers - modern self-service machines available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
• 1,700+ partner pickup points - staffed collection locations in retail stores

This dense network covers all major Hungarian cities including Budapest, Debrecen, Szeged, Miskolc, Pecs, and Gyor, as well as smaller towns and villages. For Hungarian customers, this means a pickup point is always nearby - the average distance to the nearest Foxpost locker is just 500 meters in urban areas.

Service Types and Technology

Foxpost offers two main types of pickup points:

• A-BOX lockers - fully automated parcel lockers with touchscreen interfaces that enable parcel collection without waiting. Customers receive an SMS or email with a unique code to enter at the machine.
• Partner points - pickup points in shops, gas stations, and other staffed locations, ideal for customers who prefer personal interaction.

The Foxpost mobile app allows customers to track parcels in real-time, find the nearest locker, manage deliveries, and even extend storage time. The app is available for iOS and Android with over 500,000 downloads.

Sustainability and Environment

Foxpost places strong emphasis on sustainability. Their main logistics warehouse in Budapest is certified according to BREEAM standards, an internationally recognized certification for sustainable buildings. Parcel locker delivery also significantly reduces carbon footprint compared to traditional home delivery because:

• Drivers can deliver multiple parcels in one stop
• Failed delivery attempts are eliminated
• Customers can collect parcels during their regular commute
