MYFLEXBOX acquired by DEINFACH

DeinFach, a wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Post, acquired 100% of myflexbox from the STAR IV Fund, a vehicle managed by STAR Capital Partnership, in a transaction announced on 1 October 2026. The seller had held the Salzburg-based operator of open-access parcel lockers since April 2023. Deutsche Post intended to combine myflexbox with DeinFach, its open-access locker platform in Germany, while keeping the myflexbox brand and the carrier-neutral model in place. The DeinFach brand was to be transitioned gradually into myflexbox, consolidating the carrier-neutral locker networks of both companies under a single label. At the time of the transaction myflexbox operated around 3,000 stations in Austria and Germany, having grown its network more than seven-fold from roughly 400 locations in Austria since STAR's investment, while entering the German market and installing about 2,000 sites there. The company held long-term, index-linked contracts with blue-chip carriers and had developed proprietary software for its network. The combination was presented as part of Deutsche Post's open-access roll-out strategy in Germany, where the group planned to make around 50,000 parcel lockers available by 2030, more than half of them carrier-neutral myflexbox solutions. The myflexbox stations were to complement a German network of approximately 19,000 DHL Packstations, Poststationen and DeinFach kiosks. Founder Jonathan Grothaus, chief executive, and Peter Klima, chief technology officer, had worked with STAR Capital during its ownership.
