Shopopop, the collaborative last-mile delivery platform, has achieved a significant milestone in the Spanish sector by reaching over 100,000 orders delivered since its launch in 2022. This figure highlights the growing interest among users in an innovative delivery model that combines efficiency and affordability.
To date, more than 4,000 individual users have participated in at least one delivery, and over 600 businesses have adopted this system to meet the increasing demand for home deliveries. Shopopop’s operations allow businesses from various categories to connect with drivers who utilize their daily commutes to make deliveries within two-hour timeframes. This approach not only solves logistical challenges but also represents a financially viable alternative.
Shopopop’s collaborative model reflects the rising trend in e-commerce, which is projected to reach $4.6 trillion globally by 2030. The platform stands alongside other innovative and sustainable initiatives in the market, such as BlaBlaCar, Wallapop, and Too Good To Go.
The benefits derived from Shopopop are clear. Local businesses that join the platform can expand their delivery capabilities without making significant investments in logistics, which is especially advantageous for small shops like florists or bakeries. Moreover, users who make the deliveries receive tips, allowing them to earn additional income ranging from €1,100 to €1,800 per year. This system not only optimizes their commutes but also fosters a sense of community.
Another key point is the positive environmental impact. According to company data, deliveries made through Shopopop generate nearly four times fewer CO₂ emissions per week compared to traditional delivery methods, contributing to a more sustainable logistics model.
Since its arrival in Spain, Shopopop has expanded its operational network to major cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Málaga, Bilbao, Zaragoza, and Ciudad Real. Internationally, the company has also grown considerably in countries like France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, having surpassed 15 million collaborative deliveries.
Clara Lloveres, Country Manager of Shopopop in Spain, stated that the response from the Spanish market has been very positive. Projections for the end of the year indicate an increase of nearly 45% in the number of deliveries compared to the previous year. Lloveres emphasized the company’s mission to continue expanding its coverage and business partnerships to facilitate a transition toward a more flexible and sustainable logistics model, adapting to new consumer demands.
