Otta's take

Sam Franklin headshot

Sam Franklin

CEO of Otta

eCommerce continues to eat into the high street, with more shopping done online than ever, and the trend shows no sign of slowing down. Given such continuous growth, Metapack aims to meet growing consumer expectations for fast and efficient deliveries.

The company helps online businesses meet customer needs by offering a wide range of personalised services that is facilitated by their wide network of carriers. This is essential for Metapack to maintain a defensible business model. Success has been clear for the company; leading brands like Adidas, Argos and Asos use their technology.

Recent integration with Gophr, a courier service that prioritises same-day service, will expand Metapack's customer base at a time when consumers are interested in faster shipping choices and when retailers look to leverage different shipping options to meet customer demand. This helps place the company in a steady place amongst competitors.
