Nova Poshta, Ukraine’s leading express delivery service and part of the NOVA group, has launched a pilot program to test Hypershell exoskeletons for use at terminals and depots, the company said in a statement on Wednesday.
“We want to make work at terminals and depots safer and more comfortable for employees. Therefore, we are systematically reducing the physical load in those operational processes where full automation is currently more difficult to implement,” said Yevhen Khomenko, R&D director at Nova Poshta, in the release.
According to him, the company aims to make warehouse operations easier and more productive.
Nova Poshta also explained that as part of the pilot program, employees are testing four models of exoskeletons, namely Hypershell X GO, Hypershell X PRO, Hypershell X CARBON, and Hypershell X ULTRA. The main function of this technology is to take over up to 30% of the effort normally expended by muscles when walking or moving, thus making movement easier.
“This makes physical work easier, helps employees maintain a steady pace of work, and reduces fatigue by the end of the shift,” the company emphasized.
It is noted that after completing testing, Nova Poshta will make a decision on the further use of exoskeletons and the possible scaling of the technology.
In 2025, Nova Poshta increased its revenue by 21% compared to 2024. The number of parcels and cargo delivered in 2025 increased by 7.4% – from 486 million to 522 million, including international deliveries – by 52.6%, from 19 million to 29 million.
The main activity of Nova Poshta is the express delivery of documents, parcels, and palletized large-sized cargo. Its ultimate beneficial owners are Volodymyr Poperechnyuk and Vyacheslav Klimov.
As of early January 2026, the company’s network had more than 50,000 service points, including 15,900 branches and 34,200 post offices.
Nova Poshta, the leader in express delivery in Ukraine and part of the NOVA group, has entered into a partnership with UPS Store, the leader in the logistics market, to deliver documents or parcels weighing up to 30 kg from the US to Ukraine through more than 6,000 partner locations, the company said in a statement on Wednesday.
“We have taken the next step in developing our presence in the US market by launching deliveries to Ukraine in partnership with UPS,” said Vyacheslav Klimov, co-owner of the NOVA group of companies (Nova Poshta), in a press release.
He noted that Nova Poshta plans to speed up delivery times from the current 7+ days to 5+ days, expand the list of services to include scaled address delivery, and open franchise branches in major cities across the country.
It is noted that the cost of delivery from the US to Ukraine is expected to be $25 for documents and parcels up to 1 kg, $30 for parcels up to 2 kg, $50 for parcels up to 5 kg, $80 for parcels up to 10 kg, $150 for parcels up to 20 kg, and $200 for parcels up to 30 kg.
Insurance is included in the cost for parcels up to $150, while for shipments over $150, a minimum commission of 0.5% is provided. In case of force majeure, the company will refund the sender the estimated value of the shipment in full, according to the statement.

Individuals will now be able to verify Starlink at branches of Ukraine’s leading express delivery service Nova Poshta, part of the NOVA group, as well as the national postal operator Ukrposhta, according to a statement from the Ministry of Digital Transformation on Tuesday.
“We are launching a new stage of registration for terminals in Ukraine. Individuals can now verify Starlink not only at the Administrative Services Center, but also at the nearest Nova Poshta or Ukrposhta branches,” the Ministry of Digital Transformation wrote on its Telegram channel.
According to a release from Nova Poshta, individuals will be able to register up to three devices per person at its branches. If you have one Starlink, you can verify it remotely.
“If you have more than one device, you need to have them with you when you visit the branch,” the company added.
Ukrposhta also reported that in order to register several terminals, you must have them with you when registering at the branch.
In addition, it is noted that to register a terminal, you must provide the operator with your passport (ID card or foreign passport), RNOKPP (identification code), KIT number (serial number of the kit), UTID (unique terminal identifier) and/or Dish ID (antenna/terminal identifier), account number on the Starlink terminal portal, as well as a link to the portal where you can check this number.
As explained by Nova Poshta, a separate document is created for each Starlink terminal. Once completed, the data is automatically transferred to the Ministry of Digital Transformation.
In turn, Ukrposhta reported that after submitting an application through its branch or the Administrative Services Center and its registration, the terminal will automatically resume operation within 72 hours.
“An SMS message will be sent to confirm the successful acceptance of the application,” the company added.
At the end of January, Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov announced that the ministry’s team, after contacting SpaceX, had proposed ways to solve the problem with Starlink satellite communication terminals.
The first reaction was to limit the speed at which Starlink operates in Ukraine.
However, as a long-term solution, the Cabinet of Ministers adopted a resolution on the introduction of a “white list” for Starlink, thanks to which only verified and registered terminals will operate in Ukraine, while others will be disconnected.
On February 4, Fedorov appealed to the commanders of the Defense Forces at all levels to organize the verification of Starlink terminals. To do this, all Starlink terminal numbers must be transferred to the “white list” through the DELTA system.
According to him, the Starlink verification process is actively underway in Ukraine, with citizens already adding terminals to the “white list” to ensure their operation.
As of the end of summer 2025, according to the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, approximately 50,000 Starlink terminals have been delivered since the start of the war thanks to the support of international partners. In addition to Poland, Germany is also paying for their operation. In addition, Starlink terminals are being imported and used in Ukraine by other users who pay for them themselves. The total number of Starlink terminals in Ukraine at that time was estimated at approximately 100,000.
