Leveraging X5 retail stores and logistics capabilities, X5 Omni is planning to establish package delivery network across the country.

The platform has established pick-up points at 2,400 stores, which deliver about 7,000 parcels every day. The platform aims to employ X5’s logistics infrastructure for deliveries from small-scale regional producers and online stores.

The company also plans to make parcel delivery services available at several X5 stores by the end of next year.

The food retailer signed a long-term agreement, in April this year, with wholesale supplier RITM-2000 to open 85 stores across central Russia.
