Customers can also send parcels from the UTi ByBox using a prepaid UTi Pak in various sizes.”<\/p>\n
The first UTi ByBox was installed at an Engen service station in suburban Johannesburg. Retail centers, business parks and university campuses are also among the types of locations targeted for the UTi ByBox deployment. Learn more at: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xiISp1jGYfY<\/p>\n
“The UTi ByBox is a great option for retailers and their customers, particularly in emerging markets, where home delivery may not be faster, better or cheaper,” said Keith Pienaar, President, UTi Contract Logistics & Distribution. “We are committed to the success of the UTi ByBox and to providing this option throughout South Africa, where we have a leading market presence and a strong parcel delivery network already in place. We will also be studying the deployment to determine its potential elsewhere in Africa and other emerging markets around the world where UTi has special strengths.”<\/p>\n
