Let\u2019s look at each of these four markets below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Retail <\/b><b>Market<\/b><b>: Harnessing the Power of Lockers for In-Store Order Pick Up<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart lockers are a win-win for customers and retailers. Retailers are able to offer fast, same-day pick up at their stores while also controlling the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customer journey<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">experience<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from end-to-end.

The code is then scanned on a smartphone at a participating retail location, allowing contactless order retrieval in as fast as 90 seconds. No waiting in line and no wasted time. If the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">retailer<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is open 24\/7 or has outdoor lockers, package accessibility is even more convenient for customers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s not forget that the \u201cBuy Online, Pick-up In-Store\u201d model is exploding for retailers. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A recent study by McKinsey &amp; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Company<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found that 60% of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">U.S.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> consumers said that they will continue to use this hybrid shopping <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even after the pandemic subsides<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lowe\u2019s, which recently selected Parcel Pending as its automated locker partner for 1,700 of its stores, sums up a key benefit of delivering purchases to customers this way. According to Joe McFarland, Vice President of Stores: \u201cThis is a significant step in our relentless efforts to create a fast and frictionless shopping experience for today&#8217;s time-pressed customers.&#8221;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no doubt that this <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">model is here to stay, given its ability <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to seamlessly deliver <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">excellent customer service<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by reducing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customer complaints<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, increasing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customer satisfaction<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and attracting<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> potential customers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Higher Education <\/b><b>Market<\/b><b>: Getting an A+ for Promoting Social Distancing and Easy Parcel Retrieval<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The college and university market faces different challenges than the retail sector. Whereas retailers are working to cement <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">brand loyalty<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, improve the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customer experience<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and ease the burden on their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">supply chain<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, facilities managers are struggling with surging parcel numbers threatening to overtake their mail sorting and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> centers. As students and staff return and potentially retreat from campus, a surplus of packages add work to an already overburdened staff. Yet, the adoption of automated, smart lockers streamlines package retrieval, accessibility, and safety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As parcels are sorted, coded, and delivered to a secure electronic locker, students are notified by email or text that a package has been delivered to the smart locker. Retrieval is easy and safe. Students simply scan the barcode for safe, contactless delivery. Another key benefit is that reminders are sent automatically to students that time is running out to pick up their parcel. Of course, complete visibility into where your packages are at all times is available via<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.quadient.com\/mail\/shipping-and-tracking-solutions\/wts-web-tracking-system\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WTS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Web Tracking System) or existing university mail tracking systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This self-<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> model of package pick-up reduces your labor interaction by a whopping 30% but also boosts student satisfaction and accessibility. They can pick up their package on their schedule, ending the days of waiting in line or standing too close to their neighbor. In short, smart lockers promote social distancing while granting accessible parcel retrieval.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Multifamily <\/b><b>Market<\/b><b>: Managing Surging Parcel Delivery with Ease<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retailers are seeing a huge uptick in online shopping as consumers remain wary of in-person shopping.

No more waiting in line, no more interrupting property staff, no more unsafe social distancing practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lockers embrace all safety protocols, as residents can pick up parcels without interacting with delivery <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">company<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> drivers, property staff, or even other residents.
