Newcastle United and InPost have announced a multi-year partnership to become the club’s Official Parcel Collection and Delivery Service Partner. The collaboration will result in the installation of black and white parcel lockers outside St James’ Park. People will be able to use the ‘Geordie lockers’ for both picking up and dropping off parcels.
“This first-of-its-kind Premier League partnership clearly shows a shared commitment from InPost and Newcastle United to be innovative and creative, while putting our fans at the heart of activity,” said Newcastle United’s Chief Commercial Officer, Peter Silverstone.
“Our devoted fans and Newcastle residents will benefit from more convenient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly deliveries right outside their beloved St. James’ Park.” InPost, like Newcastle United, is on a rapid and remarkable UK and international growth trajectory, with a 60% increase in locker locations internationally during 2023, and a 30% increase in the number of parcels delivered using InPost’s service in their global markets.
“Similarly, during the 2022/23 season, Newcastle United’s live audience reach increased by more than 48% in Europe and 44% in the UK, with our number of followers rapidly increasing.” We are thrilled to be working with InPost to provide an incredible platform to support their UK and European expansion plans. We are delighted to welcome InPost to our partner family.”
The move comes after Fenwick advertisements were seen at St James’ Park during the weekend’s win over Manchester United.
