Installation of a parcel terminal

[sadiksojib35]

The supplier is responsible for installation. The time must be agreed upon with them in advance and the site must be prepared. In case of malfunctions and failures in operation, the partner also provides repairs.

To connect the parcel terminal to the network, you need a stable Internet connection via LAN or a 3G/LTE signal. The rest is done by technicians. As soon as the equipment is connected to the power grid, the station is ready for operation. The software setup is provided by the partner. It regulates the delivery of goods and the booking of a cell for loading the parcel.

What requirements apply?
How to open a pick-up point, saving time and reducing venezuela telegram costs? You need to meet a number of mandatory requirements:

Companies do not welcome the placement of several pick-up points of one supplier in close proximity. Exceptions are allowed if the neighboring parcel terminal is constantly full and it is not possible to serve the required number of customers.
Only a registered individual entrepreneur or LLC can conclude an agreement. When registering, you must select code 47.91 "Retail trade by mail or via the Internet information and communication network".
The area of ​​the place should be at least 1 square meter, a level floor is required. It should be taken into account that many terminals are designed to work only indoors.
Access to 220V power supply and a stable internet connection are required.
The site's operating time must be at least 8 hours.
Compliance with these requirements is checked before concluding an agreement with a partner. After completing an online application for cooperation, the franchise may require a description of the placement conditions and a photo of the location. The time and place of delivery of the equipment are also specified in the agreement. The installation itself takes an average of 4 hours.



How much can you earn and how to connect to the network
According to forecasts from the Moscow Innovation Agency, the annual growth of the global parcel terminal market will be 12%. By 2030, it could reach $2 billion. So, in the long term, the parcel terminal business looks like a profitable investment. Three main players have emerged on the Russian market in 2024:

Logistics center operators. They service equipment, organize deliveries, and place and return goods from online stores.
Online stores. They cooperate directly with the operator, supply goods and, as a rule, pay a fee for the delivery of one unit of goods.
Private business. Engaged in purchasing or renting equipment for working with franchises or servicing an existing business.
Before determining how much you can earn on parcel terminals, let's calculate the investment and expenses. A terminal with 10 cells costs from 60,000 rubles. Usually, the average cost of equipment for 20-30 cells is 250,000 rubles. Some companies begin cooperation when purchasing at least three stations. As a result, the amount of investment at the start will be from 750,000 rubles. Depending on the cell load, the monthly income will be from 3,000 to 15,000 rubles per month from one parcel terminal.

This option is suitable for an existing business, as you will still need to pay for the Internet, electricity, and taxes. Also, renting square meters will cost from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles. In order to recoup the investment within two years, you will need at least 10 terminals.

Each company introduces its own payment terms, let's look at two examples of major players in the Russian market:

Ozon Box. These automatic stations offer only rent. The company pays fixed amounts under the contract. On average, they are 3,000 rubles in the regions and 5,000 rubles for a Moscow parcel terminal. How much an Ozon Box parcel terminal earns depends on the number of cells. The investment becomes profitable as the number of stations increases.
OmniCDEK. The pick-up point will cost 250,000 rubles. But the contract is drawn up for at least three units. Payments are made for one parcel - from 12 to 29.5 rubles. When loading 90 boxes, the revenue averages 1,800 rubles per day, which is 54,000 rubles per month.
How much you earn from a pick-up point depends on the essence of your strategy, partner, and site. You can do without buying a parcel terminal by renting a place and agreeing with the delivery service on the placement of the device. With this scheme, the income will be from 1,000 to 5,000 rubles per month from the parcel terminal. In this case, you need to additionally pay rent to the owner of the space and taxes on income. In this way, you can get from 2,000 to 3,000 ₽.



With which Russian partners can cooperation be established?
The Russian market of pick-up points is expanding, but only in comparison with classic pick-up points. Despite the difficulties, experts believe that parcel terminals will soon occupy a confident niche in the delivery of small-sized cargo.

Competition forces companies to offer various favorable conditions to attract business. Let's list the most popular companies:

Ozon Box;
Wildberries;
"Yandex Market";
"Sberlogistics";
"Halva";
5Post;
Cainiao;
SDEK.
According to Data Insight, there are about 38 thousand parcel terminals in Russia. At the same time, according to the 2GIS service, the share of parcel terminals in cities with a population of over one million has decreased by 8%. It is important to note that players such as Yandex Market and Wildberries prefer real pick-up points rather than parcel terminals. And this affects the terms of cooperation.

Analysts believe that this trend is associated with the growth of orders for large-sized goods. At the same time, they note an increased demand for parcel terminals when delivering goods from abroad. New scenarios for using such a tool are gradually developing in a variety of areas. Thus, parcel terminals in the next 5-7 years can turn into a convenient source of passive income. After all, many costs are borne by the partner.

What should be taken into account when planning such a business? The electronic format of the application and registration removes the difficulties in how to open an order pick-up point. More importantly, how to make it profitable. Today, the profitability of a small business in such an enterprise is estimated from 15,000 to 100,000 rubles. In this case, a stable income is provided by a preliminary analysis of the nuances of placement and the situation on the market as a whole.
