Copec announces historic investment to strengthen Blue Express’ leading position
Almost three years after acquiring Blue Express, Copec announced a record US$100 million investment plan to upgrade and scale up its operations. The goal is to double the current daily package processing capacity to reach 500,000 packages per day by the end of 2026 and one million by 2030.
“Copec has a leadership vocation in the businesses we are involved in. We like to be a player that leads positions and markets. And in logistics, Blue Express is already number one in terms of parcel delivery nowadays, and we want to consolidate that position,” said Arturo Natho, Copec’s CEO.
The plan’s initiatives include expanding the main hub in Santiago by 40,000 m², doubling the number of warehouses nationwide, and incorporating world-class automated sorters (machines that sort merchandise). This revamping is meant to provide advantages of scale that translate into high-quality service and competitive prices. In September alone, more than 7,500 orders were picked up through lockers, confirming the high demand for flexible and efficient solutions. The strategy also considers new services such as delivery to Metro stations and returns management.
