Expansion into new cities

Over the past year, the number of parcel lockers managed by the company in Lithuania has increased to 303. Some of them were installed in cities where "DPD Lietuva" did not previously have parcel lockers, such as Nida, Antežeriai, Baltoji Vokė, and Priekulė. More than 40 already built parcel lockers were expanded and renewed, according to R. Vilkaitis.

Last year, the company invested not only in new parcel lockers but also in expanding sorting terminals and renewing their equipment. The Telšiai and Šiauliai terminals were updated during 2022, as was the equipment of the Kaunas small parcel terminal, with a total investment of about 1 million euros.

Reducing CO2 emissions

The company is making great efforts to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and for the second year in a row, it has been delivering parcels in the capital city using electric vehicles.

In October 2021, 60 new electric cars hit the streets of Vilnius, and charging station infrastructure was installed alongside them. "DPD Lithuania" continues to prioritize sustainable parcel delivery. According to the company's data, the expansion of parcel lockers contributed to the reduction of CO2 emissions by about 828 tons last year, which is equivalent to approximately 200 cars with internal combustion engines' annual pollution. "Each parcel locker helps reduce pollution by almost 3 tons per year. Therefore, just last year, the installation of 38 new parcel lockers contributed to pollution reduction and saved more than 55 tons of CO2 emissions," explains R. Vilkaitis.
