HubBox Raises €6.8 M As Demand Surges For Pickup-Point Delivery Solutions

Sam Jarvis, CEO of HubBox, comments: “Offering pickup at checkout is key to accelerating the shift to out-of-home delivery, and HubBox has been leading the charge for nearly a decade as the market leader in this space. Now, as demand for HubBox from couriers, retailers and shoppers continues to surge, we’re expanding our investment in people and software to meet it.”

In 2025, European logistics and e-commerce infrastructure saw strong investment activity. London-based Relay raised €33.4 million to modernise parcel delivery, HIVED secured €35.6 million to expand its electric, e-commerce-focused network, and Portugal’s Lyzer obtained over €10 million to scale its retail logistics platform.

Smart-locker provider Bloq.it added €28 million to grow OOH infrastructure, while Austria’s Quivo raised €5.2 million to expand its fulfilment operations.

With roughly €119 million disclosed across these rounds, HubBox’s €6.8 million raise fits into a broader European shift toward alternative delivery methods especially within the UK, which remains a key hub for next-generation logistics innovation.

“We’re truly thrilled to partner with Puma to take this exciting next step. With OOH on track to overtake home delivery, the opportunity is huge – and we’re just getting started,” adds Jarvis.

Founded in 2015 by Sam Jarvis (CEO), Claire Jarvis (Chief of Staff), Greg Beszant (VP of Sales EMEA), and Jon Pawley (CTO), HubBox was built to address failed home deliveries and growing demand for convenient pickup alternatives.

HubBox’s software enables retailers to offer local collection points directly at checkout giving customers greater flexibility, improving delivery reliability and helping couriers boost efficiency by consolidating parcel volumes.

The platform integrates with more than 1,000 retail systems and now supports thousands of merchants across the UK, Europe, and the US, including GAP, Selfridges, Gymshark, Birkenstock, and Macy’s.

HubBox’s model is driven by close collaboration with major courier partners such as UPS, DPD, Royal Mail, Asendia, PostNord, and DHL. The company states that its Funded License Program where couriers subsidise HubBox software for retailers during an initial term has been especially effective in accelerating adoption.

Charlotte Howe, Investment Manager at Puma Growth Partners, added: “HubBox has built a scalable solution to one of e-commerce’s most persistent challenges which is checkout integration for alternative delivery options. Their technical expertise, strong commercial traction and excellent courier relationships make them a standout player in the logistics tech space.

“The company is well on its way to becoming a dominant force in the future of e-commerce logistics and we are delighted to be backing Sam and the team on their next stage of growth.”

The global OOH delivery market is expected to grow from €25 billion ($29 billion) to €46 billion ($54 billion) by 2030, fuelled by rising consumer demand, regulatory pressures, and sustainability targets. In Europe alone, pickup points have surged from roughly 190,000 in 2019 to over 500,000 today.

Positioned to capture this momentum, HubBox offers a solution that delivers value across the chain improving efficiency for couriers, reliability for retailers, and convenience for shoppers.

Puma’s investment will accelerate HubBox’s expansion across the UK, Europe, and the US, strengthen its partnerships with major couriers, and support the onboarding of new retailer clients.
