“Ukrposhta” Will Install 1,000 New Street-Level Mail Kiosks in Major Cities

The national postal operator, JSC “Ukrposhta,” in partnership with the Ukrainian company “Modern-Expo,” is launching the production and installation of 1,000 new street-side mail kiosks, primarily in Kyiv, Odesa, Lviv, Dnipro, and other major cities across the country, the company’s CEO, Ihor Smilianskyi, announced on the company’s Telegram channel on Thursday.

According to him, these mail kiosks will be equipped with mailboxes that will allow users to both receive packages and send letters.
According to a press release from “Ukrposhta,” the company is inviting homeowners’ associations, property management companies, and representatives of residential complexes to collaborate.

It is anticipated that representatives of homeowners’ associations, property management companies, or residential complexes can submit an application on the national postal operator’s website to have the mail kiosks installed at the appropriate locations.
Ukrposhta explains that the company will prioritize residential complexes in major cities where there is no nearby brick-and-mortar post office, and where it is possible to place a parcel locker near the building’s entrance or in an open area of the residential complex in a location accessible to residents.

Other criteria include the availability of a solid, level surface; the ability to connect to a 220-volt power supply; and reliable mobile network coverage in the relevant area.
It is noted that coffee shops, stores, pharmacies, gas stations, and other businesses are also invited to collaborate.

“We will definitely contact you to inspect the location, agree on the installation site and terms of cooperation. And if everything is in order—we’ll sign a contract and install the parcel locker,” added Smiliansky.
Among other things, he also noted that the company will continue to purchase and install parcel lockers and expand its network through its partners’ parcel lockers.

Separately, the national postal operator announced that the cost of using parcel lockers remains unchanged—starting at 45 UAH. A customer’s package will be stored there for seven calendar days.
Ukrposhta also took the opportunity to reiterate its plans to install 1,000 parcel lockers nationwide, as well as 600 express pickup lockers directly in post offices.

As previously reported, Ukrposhta posted a net profit of 296.7 million UAH for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of 108 million UAH in the same period of 2025.
According to the report, Ukrposhta operates 7,200 customer service locations, including 2,000 mobile postal branches that serve 21,300 settlements.
