Specialist two-person delivery market leader AIT Home Delivery aims to introduce two-person delivery into European markets to replicate its success in the UK.

Formerly Panther Logistics, the company rebranded in July 2024 following its acquisition in 2020 by parent company AIT Worldwide Logistics. The move represents a new and exciting chapter in AIT Home Delivery’s continuing success story.

Now the two-person delivery specialist, which boasts over 98% next day delivery across the UK, is planning to introduce its unique offering into Europe with Germany being its first destination.

Leading the initiative is Gary McKelvey, AIT’s Vice President, Global Home Delivery, who said: “AIT offers unrivalled first- and middle-mile services, in addition to our market-leading final-mile offering from AIT Home Delivery.

“Our exceptional final mile experience – characterised by premium services like delivery to room of choice and packaging removal, soft assembly and installation, disposal, a seven day a week service, and two-hour delivery slots – can be customised to fit any European retailer’s requirements.”

AIT Home Delivery commissioned market research which revealed that Germany, in particular, has similar economic e-commerce buying habits and requirements to the UK.

The survey found that 93% of German consumers prefer two-person delivery for heavy packages, while 76% want prompt delivery and 77% value flexible delivery options.

McKelvey added: “This research demonstrates there is a clear demand for high quality tailored home delivery solutions in Germany and we are looking forward to bringing AIT’s world-class two-person home delivery services to customers in Germany and progressively across the continent.”
