GLS expands parcel locker network in Southern Europe with Keba

GLS Group is continuing its Europe-wide parcel locker network expansion in partnership with Keba, with the rollout of lockers in Italy, Spain and Portugal now underway.

The expansion builds on the strong relationship and existing footprint GLS has with Keba in Eastern Europe, as the company now expands further into the southern part of the continent.

“The collaboration with Keba allows us to rapidly and efficiently expand our network in Southern Europe,” said Johan Holstein, group director of digital and last-mile transformation at GLS Group. “Parcel lockers play a key role in our strategy to offer our customers even greater flexibility and convenience.

“The new parcel lockers in Italy, Spain and Portugal will give our customers even more independence when receiving and sending parcels – at locations that seamlessly integrate into their daily routines,” he added.

This initiative is a response to the growing demand for sustainable, user-friendly alternatives to traditional home delivery. The parcel lockers will be installed at strategic locations to ensure optimal accessibility and enhance customer service.

Cesar Lapuerta, sales director at Keba, commented, “2025 marks a special year for Keba Logistics Automation. Twenty-five years ago, the first ideas emerged for a customer-friendly solution to handle the increasing volume of parcels. Today, we are excited to shape the logistics landscape in Southern Europe together with GLS and to implement forward-thinking solutions for flexible and customer-centric parcel delivery.”

Keba will be exhibiting on Booth 11.410 at Parcel+Post Expo on October 21, 22 & 23, 2025, at RAI Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Register your interest here.
