Commence your journey as a new ParcelShop.
Typically, it takes most stores 3 to 4 weeks to commence operations as a ParcelShop. Throughout this period, ensure all necessary setups are in place. Evri will order a printer and handheld terminal, coordinating their delivery. Your responsibility is to allocate space for the printer and ensure your shop has a secure area for parcel storage and organisation. Your dedicated Evri representative will schedule an installation day for the printer, during which the following steps will occur:
- Your Evri representative will visit your store to install the printer and configure the handheld terminal.
- You (along with any staff members) will undergo training on Evri ParcelShop processes.
- Store owners and staff will sign a declaration securely stored in the Evri system.
- Your store will be ready to accept parcels for drop-off the next day.
- Overnight, your store will be featured on ParcelShop Finder and will be ready to receive parcels from hundreds of retailers the following day.
