Colis Privé, which relied on Last Smile Partner (LSP) for some of its customer delivery operations in France, has proposed a plan for the partial takeover of the parcel delivery business of Milee, which is currently looking for a buyer. This takeover offer was approved on 26 July 2024 by the Marseille Commercial Court.
Continuous improvement and service quality
This acquisition involves the integration of 301 employees, including 272 delivery drivers, as well as the takeover of 162 delivery vehicles and 27 distribution outlets throughout France. As well as preserving almost half of the LSP teams already working for Colis Privé, this acquisition will ensure continuity of service for all our customers. Colis Privé’s main objective with this internalisation, through the creation of our new entity Colis Privé Livraison, is to continually improve the quality of our services. By strengthening our national presence, we will be able to better control and monitor delivery processes to ensure an optimal experience for our customers.
Colis Privé, a key player in the delivery market
We’re proud to have the opportunity to establish ourselves as a key player in the last-mile delivery market in France and the Benelux countries. Before this takeover, Colis Privé had 650 employees in France. Thanks to the integration of this driver-delivery business, we have increased our workforce by almost 50%, to nearly 1,000 employees.
