Quadient Partners with Radical Storage to Add Global Traveller Access to its Multi-Service Locker Network
Quadient (Euronext Paris: QDT), a global automation platform powering secure and sustainable business connections, today announces a strategic partnership with Radical Storage, one of the world’s largest luggage storage networks, operating 2,000 cities across 70 countries with more than 7 million bags stored. This collaboration will provide travellers with convenient, secure, and flexible luggage storage services as more than 2,000 Parcel Pending by Quadient lockers are activated across the UK in the coming months.
Radical Storage connects travellers with a robust global ecosystem of more than 12,000 trusted storage locations, including hotels, local shops, cafés, workspaces, and now intelligent lockers, where luggage can be stored for a few hours or longer. Quadient’s smart open locker option is already live for Radical customers in Japan, and is now expanding across Europe, including France and the UK, as part of its global expansion strategy.
For Quadient, the partnership supports the expanding range of services available through its open locker network. Designed as multi-service convenience hubs, Parcel Pending by Quadient lockers provide secure, 24/7 access for parcel deliveries, returns, as well as item storage and exchange, supporting services such as prescription collection, retail click-and-collect, key exchange, and spare parts storage. The new luggage storage service via Radical’s booking platform is offering travellers a flexible alternative to carrying bags during early arrivals, late departures, day trips, and multi-city travel.
“We’re excited to partner with Quadient to expand our storage options for travellers around the world. Their automated lockers extend our existing network and align with our long-term vision, giving customers the flexibility to explore cities on their own terms.”Alessandro Seina, CEO of Radical Storage.
“Partnering with Radical Storage showcases the versatility of our open locker network and the value it brings beyond parcel services. Travellers increasingly expect flexible, secure options that fit around their journeys, and our smart lockers offer precisely that, convenience embedded in the places people already pass through every day. This collaboration strengthens our role as a trusted infrastructure provider for carriers, retailers and now the global travel community, while supporting our mission to expand accessible, sustainable locker services across the UK and beyond.”Katia Bourgeais-Crémel, Director of Lockers Automation Europe at Quadient.
Quadient is steadily expanding its smart locker network across key markets in the US, Japan, and Europe. With over 27,000 units currently installed worldwide, the company is well on its way toward its long-term objective of deploying 40,000 by 2030.
