Parcel locker innovator Cleveron has launched a modular indoor locker system that retailers can use for large and odd-shaped parcel handover for end-users either inside or close to their stores.
The new Cleveron 304 enables retailers to make their pickup faster and offers convenience while saving on delivery costs. The locker is the best tool to combine with other units meant for smaller parcels to help fully automate last-mile delivery, according to the Estonian company.
More in-store foot traffic
Arti Kütt, CEO at Cleveron, says that the solution gives a completely new standpoint to larger parcel handover: “Cleveron 304 supports improving the shopping experience and increases foot traffic in the store where the locker system is operated. The solution holds larger parcels while the client does extra purchases in-store and can collect online orders from the locker after the shopping.”
He noted that Cleveron's global retail customers have also pointed out that stores with parcel automation systems have a higher NPS score compared to stores that don't have the systems.
Fully automated handover
Cleveron 304 is a modular parcel locker system that is flexible for retailers needing to hand over odd-shaped items or parcels too large for the main unit. Cleveron units communicate via the central unit’s console. The procedure is easy: the customer places an order online, and the store’s associate processes the order. After parcel insertion, the client receives the pickup code on their phone and takes the order out of the locker via the main unit’s console in less than a minute.
Cleveron 304 can be used in combination with Cleveron 400-series robots or Cleveron 302 locker – the products that are equipped with touchscreen consoles. Parcel insertion and retrieval is quick and easy with the automated system. Parcel robots and lockers free up store associates' time and allows them to handle more valuable tasks.
The locker system can easily be adapted to suit retailers' needs with its modularity. Each module comes in three different layouts and sizes. The combination of the two Cleveron units pickup allows companies to aim for fully automated last-mile delivery.
Fewer last-mile deliveries
Providing an automated in-store pickup alternative to door-to-door delivery alleviates the need for courier services and gives a positive impact on traffic congestion and transportation costs. Store customers can pick up their parcels while running other errands and come to the store whenever suits them best.
