Packeta Group is changing its ownership: a consortium of financial and private investors will become the new owners

The shareholders of Packeta Group, the parent company of the Czech tech-logistics company Zásilkovna, have agreed to sell a 100 percent stake in the Packeta Group to a consortium of CVC Capital Partners and Emma Capital: with capital support from R2G.

The transaction is subject to approval from relevant regulatory authorities, and its completion is expected in the first half of 2024. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

„Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude to more than 2,000 colleagues for their contributions to building Packeta, which is now one of the leading European platforms for parcel delivery in the e-commerce industry. Without their efforts and abilities, Packeta would not be where it is today. For that, I sincerely thank every one of them.

Furthermore, my gratitude also belongs to our clients – e-shops who entrusted us with their parcels. Together, over the past decade, we have significantly contributed to the substantial growth of the modern e-commerce industry in Central Europe.

I believe that the new investors, who have demonstrated their knowledge and experience in the last-mile delivery sector, will help Packeta Group to grow even further and enhance the level of services provided to our customers and clients, as well as the job satisfaction of our excellent employees.

I would also like to thank our advisors and the management team for their significant assistance and support throughout this very challenging, international, and multi-tasking project. Last but not least, I thank all the shareholders who helped me manage the company for many years and have been a support, especially in the recent challenging years,“ commented Simona Kijonková, founder of Zásilkovna, CEO of Packeta, and representative of the JSK Investments, the largest shareholder of Packeta Group.
