Ukrposhta automates sorting, boosts delivery efficiency
Ukraine’s national postal service, Ukrposhta, has completed the full automation of its sorting facilities, increasing processing speed eightfold, the company wrote on its website on Feb. 4.
The modernization allows Ukrposhta to enable next-day delivery between major cities and regional centers and handle up to 2 million parcels daily, with a sorting rate of five packages per second. The company has invested 1 billion UAH ($24 mln) of its own funds into the project.
With new automated sorting hubs in Kyiv (left and right Banks), Odesa, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi, Lviv, and Dnipro, along with 17 semi-automated logistics centers, parcel processing has become faster and more precise. In 2025, Ukrposhta plans to automate letter sorting, newspaper distribution, and pharmaceutical order fulfillment, further improving efficiency.
Ukrposhta has optimized routes between sorting terminals, logistics centers, and depots as a part of its logistics overhaul, reducing delivery times across Ukraine. The company also launched a new logistics center in Zaporizhzhya, marking the final step in its automation rollout.
Ukrposhta is also expanding its financial services, having acquired First Investment Bank (PIN Bank) as part of a government-backed initiative to establish a postal bank.
