A strategic move ahead of busy season

As the logistics industry braces for the always busy peak season, the need for additional workers becomes paramount. Evri’s new partnership with Onsi positions the company as an attractive option for prospective couriers looking for flexibility and substantial benefits. This strategic move not only enhances the appeal of working with Evri but also ensures that the existing workforce is well-supported and motivated.

The Growing Logistics Landscape

As the data clearly shows, the logistics industry is rapidly expanding with businesses like Evri powering this impressive growth. In the UK, the courier and express delivery market is projected to continue growing steadily, as per the current trend line. 

In recent years, the UK parcel market has witnessed a surge in demand, driven by the rise of e-commerce.

As a leader in this sector, Evri's commitment to its couriers' wellbeing and financial stability is a testament to its forward-thinking approach and dedication to maintaining its position at the forefront of the industry.

A Win-Win Partnership

Gary Robinson, Director of Final Mile at Evri, stated,  “Our couriers are at the heart of our business, and we recognise the importance additional benefits from platforms like Onsi can make to their work and home life. As our business continues to grow, it’s an exciting time to join us and become a courier, working flexibly around other commitments.”

Onsi's CEO, Anthony Beilin echoed this sentiment, saying, "At Onsi, we envision a world of work where everyone wins. Providing Evri couriers with benefits that protect their physical and financial wellbeing is a core part of our mission. This is just the start of our partnership, with plenty more financial wellbeing initiatives to come. We are delighted to welcome Evri to Onsi and look forward to our partnership."
