The consortium includes funds managed by Advent International, a subsidiary of FedEx Corporation, A&R Investments and PPF Group. Under the agreed structure, Advent and FedEx will each hold 37% of the shares, A&R Investments 16%, and PPF Group 10%. The acquisition price has been set at €15.60 per share.
According to the company, the transaction will not lead to changes in InPost’s operating model. The group will continue to run its business independently, with its main operational headquarters and key management team remaining in Poland.
This reassurance is likely to be closely watched across the European transport and logistics sector, where large cross-border acquisitions often raise concerns that decision-making may shift away from local markets.
Capital to support further European expansion
Brzoska said the deal reflects InPost’s growth to date and is intended to support the next phase of the company’s development. He emphasised that the involvement of both financial and strategic investors would provide long-term capital as well as industry expertise, without altering the company’s strategic direction.
InPost has grown rapidly over the past decade by building one of Europe’s largest out-of-home delivery networks, centred on parcel lockers. The model has proved particularly attractive as e-commerce volumes rise and retailers and consumers seek faster, more flexible and lower-emission delivery options.
Focus on Western European markets
The investor consortium has declared its support for InPost’s existing growth strategy, including further expansion in Western Europe. Key target markets include France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, the Benelux countries and the United Kingdom, which remains Europe’s largest e-commerce market.
Alongside geographic expansion, InPost plans to deepen cooperation across the e-commerce value chain and continue investing in its consumer-facing digital services. The company sees its mobile applications and end-customer offering as an increasingly important competitive advantage in dealings with both online retailers and logistics partners.
Founder stays on, Polish base retained
Under the terms of the agreement, Brzoska will remain CEO and continue to hold a significant shareholding through A&R Investments. InPost has reiterated that the transaction is designed to support long-term growth rather than change the company’s identity or core business.
The consortium is expected to complete the acquisition in the second half of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.
