Crowdsourced last-mile distribution

How can a last-mile crowdsourced delivery solution offer flexibility and growth and become a new trend in delivery? In the Netherlands, parties such as ViaTim already represent up to 15% of the service points for major carriers in the Netherlands. These networks grow at a rate of 15-30 new locations per week, allowing them to become the largest service point network in the Netherlands with less than two years. These locations are private households that act as traditional service points where you can ship and pick up parcels. They even act as microhubs from which parcels are delivered within the neighborhood. This reduces CO2 within urban areas by 74% and offers unique propositions like ‘Your parcel at your time’ at competitive market pricing. How can you set up such a social network? How can it affect your business if you don’t? What elements of your operation will benefit or need to be adjusted to adapt to a new reality that is coming? ViaTim will answer these questions and more.
