Polish state postal operator Poczta Polska has opened a new intermediate depot in Radom as part of a nationwide program to modernize its logistics infrastructure and improve parcel delivery performance.
The facility on Stefana Okrzei Street has 750m2 of warehouse space and features more than a dozen gates and a ramp capable of handling approximately 30 courier vehicles simultaneously. It is equipped with basic automation elements, including electric, modular roller conveyors to support more efficient parcel handling.
The new depot replaces a previous facility on Prażmowskiego Street, which offered just 350m2 of operational space – not enough to efficiently handle the volume of courier vehicles and trucks passing through the site.
Intermediate depots, formally designated as Dispatch and Distribution Departments (DERs), are compact operational units serving a specific city or region and represent the final stage of the logistics process before parcel delivery.
The Radom opening follows the launch of a modernized sorting facility in Częstochowa in March, where a new depot consolidated operations previously split across two separate DER locations. Poczta Polska says further modernized depots are planned for Włocławek and Toruń, with both expected to open in the coming months.
The company says the investment is aimed at building a more efficient, flexible and modern operational network to meet growing demand in the logistics and courier services market. The increased capacity at the Radom site is expected to translate into faster, more reliable parcel delivery for customers in the region.
