January 25 (SeeNews) - Dutch-based trading platforms group OLX said on Tuesday it is partnering with Romanian tech startup Innoship to enhance the order delivery process in Romania, Bulgaria and Portugal.
With Innoship, OLX will benefit from the fast onboarding of couriers in any market, as well as from real-time visibility throughout the entire delivery process, the companies said in a joint press release.
In addition, the partnership allows for monitoring and reporting of multiple performance indicators in one centralized dashboard and instant access to a multitude of pick-up and drop-off points that were previously not available for the OLX users.
"Innoship offers innovation, agility, and state-of-the-art technology, which help us meet our objectives. The team’s proactive approach, the seamless implementation of the service, as well as the quality of their work proved that this is going to be a long-lasting partnership for our operations in Romania, Bulgaria, and Portugal," OLX product manager Radu Stefan said.
Innoship has become the largest aggregator of delivery options in Romania and aims at the leadership position in Europe, according to the press release.
"International expansion has always been amongst our priorities, and we are proud to take decisive steps towards this goal together with a dynamic partner such as OLX. Both organisations share the same vision for creating the best customer experience through innovation and top-quality services. We look forward to continuing our European expansion plans while remaining committed to our growth goals here, in Romania," Innoship head of business development and co-founder Dan Ungureanu said.
Founded in 2019 by entrepreneurs Daniel Nicolae, Andrei Paul, Dan Ungureanu, and Robert Tanase, Innoship is a technology start-up that automates deliveries for online retailers. At present, Innoship integrates over 65 couriers from 15 countries and employs 18.
