About Bloq.it
At Bloq.it, we provide end-to-end solutions for Smart Lockers, and our software ecosystem, Bloq.it OS, is the leading tech solution available in the market.
We've had the pleasure of working with some of the biggest names in e-commerce, logistics, and retail in Europe, such as Vinted and DHL.
We have recently become the fastest-growing Smart Locker company in the world. Before Bloq.it the industry had stagnated and lacked innovation and good products. We strive to have the same impact in this industry as Tesla has had on the car industry.
We believe that Smart Lockers are a big part of the future for everyone, and we want to play our part in making sure that Smart Lockers become as mainstream as the mobile phone.
