Smartpost

SmartPOST is an Estonian logistics company which specializes in delivery of goods and self-servicing post offices. Founded in 2008, SmartPOST currently operates 35 self-servicing post offices over Estonia through a solution called the Delivery Point Solution (DPS).
Currently, the DPS system is used by online shops for product delivery as an alternative to regular post services. Private customers can send their packages through the system as well and pay for the delivery on the spot with a debit or credit card. The system also encompasses an SMS-based notification system notifying clients when an item has been delivered. SmartPOST's solution was implemented in April 2009.
Unlike other similar systems (such as the Packstation solution in Germany), SmartPOST has placed its Delivery Point Solution indoors (e.g. in shopping malls), making them convenient to use even with bad weather.
In July 2009, SmartPOST reported it is in negotations with an Italian company interested in licensing SmartPOST's Delivery Point Solution for usage in Italy.
Currently SmartPOST is servicing roughly one hundred distant selling companies in Estonia.
