RealFBS is an operating scheme in which the seller stores, collects and delivers orders from its warehouse independently or with the help of a partner, for example, the integrated delivery service 5Post.
Ozon sellers will be able to ship goods through a wide network of 5Post parcel terminals – for example, in Moscow there are 885 parcel terminals available for delivery of orders, in St. Petersburg there are about 370 parcel terminals. Buyers who place an order from the Ozon seller with 5Post delivery will have access to a wide geography of delivery to more than 20,700 delivery points in Pyaterochka and Perekrestok stores in almost 4,000 settlements in 63 regions of Russia.
Delivery of an order within the city will take from two calendar days, and delivery from Central to the Ural region from four calendar days.
“In the early stages of 5Post's development, we were more focused on the needs of large and medium-sized businesses and recipients. For us, the project with Ozon is the first step into the small business segment, in which we see great potential for the development of our product,” commented Vitaly Dyrdasov, Managing Director of 5Post .
The 5Post service has delivered more than 100 million orders over six years of operation.
