Rafał Brzoska, the founder and CEO of InPost commented on the results:  “In 2021 we delivered another strong year of growth and margin expansion in Poland, thanks to improving consumer usage as proximity to our lockers increased. We continue to invest in enhancing our best-in-class consumer experience to help our merchants maximize their sales and customer satisfaction. It is not without significance that today 56% of Poland’s population has our lockers within a 7 min walk from their home. We  achieved further market share gains not only by placing 9x more lockers than all our  competition combined in 2021, but through our operational focus and expertise as a world leading automated parcel machine specialist. I am pleased to report that build-up of utilization and payback trends of the new machines are stronger than all previous year  cohorts, with the exception of the covid driven 2020. In Poland we now have a total of 2.4m lockers, which represents 96% of all parcel lockers across the entire market. Our APM  service’s net promoter score (NPS) improved again, reaching a new record level of 75. A recent study highlighted that we have the most preferred last-mile delivery service for consumers in Poland. Our aim is to transfer that elevated customer experience to the  pan-European level, accelerated by our acquisition of Mondial Relay. “
