bpostgroup Footprint—Global Expansion with Staci Acquisition

On August 1, 2024, bpostgroup completed a major step in its global expansion—acquiring the Staci Group, a key logistics player in Asia, Europe, and the US. With over 90 sites all over the world, this is a major advantage for the whole of bpostgroup, including Landmark Global—with the Staci acquisition, we can extend our global reach and provide you with even better services. Find out more.

A Transformation Into a Logistics Leader

Landmark Global has extensive experience in international parcel delivery. We have been working with both postal operators and commercial carriers for the past 20 years. Specializing in international parcel delivery, we have built a large network of hubs with over 25 facilities across 4 continents.

Our current infrastructure has enabled us to provide excellent delivery services in the most important world markets. Nevertheless, we understand that a broad reach is key to efficient logistics. And with the acquisition of Staci Group by bpostgroup, we can extend it significantly.

Since Staci has a wide network of warehouses and fulfilment centres in the main countries that Landmark Global operates in, the acquisition enables us to strengthen our position in our top markets and also to enter new countries much more effectively, turning Landmark Global into a true logistics leader.

The Benefits of Staci Acquisition for Landmark Global’s Clients

As our client, you might be wondering what the Staci acquisition means for you. Therefore, we would like to present the most crucial advantages created by the acquisition of Staci by bpostgroup to you.

Increased Operational Presence

Staci Group owns multiple storage facilities across Landmark Global's most important markets. Its acquisition gives us access to additional warehouses, enabling us to handle higher parcel volumes simultaneously. As a result, we are even better positioned to manage your logistics operations and provide you with excellent delivery services that are on time every time.

Improved Flexibility

Access to Staci's infrastructure will also impact Landmark Global’s flexibility. A denser network of warehouses, transportation hubs, and fulfilment centres will give us more route-planning options. As a result, we will excel in:

• optimising routes to increase the efficiency of our parcel delivery services, hence enabling you to send your parcels more quickly,

• building disruption-proof routes—this is already one of our key advantages, but with our carrier-neutral approach and the flexibility provided by Staci infrastructure, we will minimise the risk even further,

• Expanding our offerings—we will now be able to offer new logistics products and service types for multiple different industries.

Extended Expertise

The Staci Group acquisition is not only about the infrastructure—its main benefit is the expertise that it will bring to the whole bpostgroup. Staci has gathered extensive experience in resilient industries, such as:

• F&B,

• health,

• med-tech,

• cosmetics,

• high-tech,

and the B2B sector in Europe. Staci experts will join forces with our specialists at Landmark Global and bpostgroup, enabling us to optimise our procedures even further and explore innovative solutions to provide you with even better services.

A Step Towards the New Future

The Staci acquisition marks a transformation of the whole bpostgroup, leading to a new business model tailored to the needs of high-volume B2B logistics services. Due to the excellent financial reports in Staci, their loyal client base and expertise, we are happy to enter this new chapter, one that will be determined by growth and expansion.

The Takeaway

Acquiring Staci is a step toward achieving the bpostgroup vision—moving from a postal player to an international third-party logistics provider with a strong focus on flexible, high-value logistics serving B2B, B2C, and omnichannel customer needs. With the power of Staci, our services at Landmark Global will evolve, enabling us to serve our client’s needs even better and provide the finest logistics services available.
