Royal Mail to boost online shipping tools with StoreFeeder acquisition
Royal Mail has purchased StoreFeeder, the firm which built its consumer and small business shipping tool Click and Drop, for an undisclosed fee.
The StoreFeeder acquisition will see the firm working on improving the Click and Drop tools which enable eBay sellers to print Royal Mail postage labels without manually inputting the address of each buyer.
Nick Landon, managing director of Royal Mail Parcels, said: “Having successfully developed and launched our new shipping tool which has worked very effectively through the busy Christmas period, the acquisition of StoreFeeder was a clear strategic choice.
“I’m delighted that we will now be able to accelerate the development and release of even more tools to make shipping parcels with Royal Mail easier and more convenient.”
StoreFeeder will continue to serve its existing clients.
