Last-mile Network & AssetsPostNL's fixed sorting centers, depots, delivery routes and out-of-home pickup network are long-lived assets that lower marginal delivery costs and improve delivery success. This infrastructure creates operational scale and service stickiness versus new entrants, supporting durable competitive positioning in domestic logistics.
