Colis Privé, which relied in France on Last Smile Partner (LSP) for some of its customer delivery operations, proposed a partial takeover plan for the parcel delivery business of Milee, which was looking for a successor. This takeover offer was approved on 26 July 2024 by the Commercial Court of Marseille.
Continuous improvement and quality of service
This acquisition concerns the integration of 301 employees, including 272 delivery drivers, as well as the takeover of 162 delivery vehicles and 27 distribution stations throughout France. This acquisition not only preserves almost half of the LSP teams already active for Colis Privé, but also guarantees continuity of service for all our customers.
The main objective of Colis Privé with this internalization, through the creation of our new entity Colis Privé Livraison, is to continuously improve the quality of our services. By strengthening our national presence, we will be able to better control delivery processes to ensure an optimal customer experience.
Colis Privé, a reference player in the delivery market
We are proud to have the opportunity to establish ourselves as a reference player in the last mile delivery market in France and at BeLux. Before this takeover, Colis Privé had 650 employees in France, thanks to the integration of this as a delivery company, we have an increase of almost 50% in our workforce, which is nearly 1000 employees.
