For grocers, hardware stores, pharmacies, storage facilities and other retailers, co-located KinekPoints offer a chance to attract and engage new in-store customers without additional marketing spend. Kinek partners can also generate new revenue via e-coupons and special deals pushed through Kinek's popular web and mobile apps. The company's creative value-adding services supplement existing store offerings for increased foot-traffic.

"People are frustrated with how traditional delivery services either require you to take time off work to sign for a package or leave valuable parcels unattended on doorsteps or in apartment lobbies," said Kerry McLellan, CEO, Kinek. "KinekPoints give customers a more convenient and secure way to receive packages while introducing them to local businesses they might have otherwise missed."

"So many of our small business customers use us as their business hubs, so we instantly recognized the value of offering Kinek as a value-add service," said Tron Jordheim, CMO, StorageMart, with 130 storage outlets across the US and Canada. "As a Kinek point we also get added exposure that brings new customers in the door—all at no expense to us."

Unlike other delivery networks, Kinek is e-tailer-and courier agnostic, which allows customers to have packages shipped from any website, retail outlet or individual in the world to a KinekPoint of their choice. Kinek integrates with all retailer logistics services to ensure secure delivery to the recipient's requested KinekPoint, where the package is held until it's ready for pickup.

"Already I can see Kinek helping us not only attract new customers, but also better engage the ones we already have," said Gino Cordisco, Vice President at Med-Fast Pharmacy, located throughout Pennsylvania. "As a KinekPoint, people have more reasons than ever to stop by to get the things they need."

KinekPoints are vetted by the company to ensure each location offers flexible hours, ample storage space, and a secure and convenient environment that can receive Kinek packages.
