DPD Croatia present Singular by DPD, a platform to support small and medium-sized enterprises

Zagreb | September 2024 | DPD Croatia presents Singular by DPD platform, a digital showcase of local Croatian products that promotes and encourages the growth of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs in Croatia. At DPD Croatia, we believe in fostering authenticity and supporting the Croatian local economy. Therefore, we decided to focus on the excellence of small Croatian entrepreneurs and bring their products closer to e-customers all over Croatia and Europe.

About the Platform

Singular by DPD is an innovative platform designed to support a key part of the Croatian economy: small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Since its foundation, DPD has worked closely with entrepreneurs and young and family businesses across the country, helping them grow and reach more customers in Croatia and globally through its international Geopost network. Singular by DPD is another tool to strengthen that cooperation. This innovative platform connects thousands of DPD users, and thus potential customers, with exclusive local brands and provides an overview of products from various categories, including clothing, footwear, beauty and health products, and food and drinks.

An Authentic Experience for Users and E-shoppers

The platform serves everyone seeking an authentic experience, unique items, and stories behind each product. Singular enables SMEs to introduce themselves to thousands of users of the myDPD portal and application, thus expanding their customer base and generating additional revenue. DPD Croatia does not take any commission, given that the mission of this innovation is to present the talent of Croatian small and medium-sized companies, and the use of the platform for e-customers is entirely free.

The Singular platform is not just another marketplace; it is a digital storefront designed to inspire. No transactions occur on the platform - clicking on a product redirects the customer to the vendor's website to complete the purchase. After a successful pilot project in Italy, the platform is now coming to Croatia to expand local brands and promote the authenticity of Croatian products.

"Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are crucial for the Croatian economy, and thus for DPD. Therefore, we want to encourage their growth, ensure their visibility through this platform, and strengthen our commitment to them. DPD is one of the leading players in the parcel delivery sector, as thousands of small and medium-sized companies have trusted us for more than 20 years, and since we continuously adapt to the needs of our clients," said Snježana Stanić, Marketing, Communication, Out-of-Home Delivery & Product Development Manager.

The Singular team is constantly looking for ideal brands to showcase on the platform, and we are open to brand proposals via the contact form on the Singular website https://hr.singular.shop/pages/pridruzi-nam-se. After the brand registration, the team will carefully review the proposal and evaluate whether it matches the values ​​of Singular based on the criteria of product quality, commitment to the local community, and uniqueness of the product.
