Russian Post Launches Fulfillment Services for Detsky Mir in Novosibirsk
PJSC Detsky Mir (“Detsky Mir” or the “Company”, MOEX: DSKY), a multi-vertical digital retailer and the leader in the children’s goods sector in Russia and Kazakhstan, and Russian Post have launched fulfillment services from a logistics center of Russian Post in the Novosibirsk Region. The fulfillment center will provide uninterrupted delivery services for at least 80% of next-day online orders to Detsky Mir customers in the Siberian Federal District.
At the fulfillment warehouse of the Novosibirsk Logistics Center (NLC), Russian Post will be able to store simultaneously up to 200,000 SKUs from Detsky Mir’s product assortment, while shipping up to 90,000 online orders per month. The center will be able to handle goods of all categories, from diapers and toys to children’s furniture, strollers and pet supplies.
Russian Post and other logistics partners of the Company will deliver orders from the fulfillment center to Detsky Mir retail stores, its own automated parcel lockers, direct to customers’ homes by courier, as well as to Russian Post branches throughout the Siberian Federal District.
“This new distribution center is a strategically significant project for Detsky Mir that enables accelerated deliveries of all items ordered for our customers across the entire Siberian Federal District. Thus, together with Russian Post, we have already successfully launched two distribution centers in the space of a year,” commented Maria Davydova, CEO of PJSC Detsky Mir.
“We would like to thank Detsky Mir for placing their trust into us, and we look forward to further expand our operations. By launching fulfillment services in regional centers, online stores are able to significantly cut lead times for shipment and delivery of goods to customers. We plan to launch a network of these kinds of fulfillment centers using our own logistics infrastructure in Russian cities with a population of over one million. In the future, this will allow us to offer the market even more attractive quality and delivery times of goods,” said Alexey Skatin, Deputy CEO for E-Commerce at Russian Post.
The Russian Post Novosibirsk Logistics Center is already the second such hub after Kazan, where Russian Post started providing fulfillment services for Detsky Mir earlier this year.
Detsky Mir operates two federal and three regional distribution centers with a total floor space of more than 175,000 sq. m.
