UK parcel carrier Evri will enter the U.S. delivery market through an acquisition.
Evri’s move marks its first expansion beyond the United Kingdom and follows a strategic review of international growth opportunities. The company confirmed the acquisition as part of its multi-year plan to scale operations in high-demand e-commerce logistics markets.
The deal is scheduled to close in Q3 2025. Upon completion, Evri will operate from five U.S. distribution hubs, beginning with facilities in Chicago, Dallas, and Atlanta. These locations were selected based on proximity to major e-commerce fulfillment centers and regional population density metrics.
Strategic Rationale
announcement, Evri expects the U.S. operation to generate $120 million in annual revenue by 2026. The company stated it aims to capture 3.7% of the U.S. last-mile parcel volume within three years of launch.
Evri’s Chief Executive Officer, Will O’Donnell, said: “This acquisition accelerates our path to becoming a transatlantic delivery partner for mid-sized retailers and DTC brands seeking reliable, scalable ground networks.”
The transaction includes the assumption of 420 full-time employees and 185 delivery vehicles currently operated by the acquired U.S. company.
Regulatory and Operational Timeline
U.S. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) approval is expected by May 2025. Evri has allocated $28 million for integration, technology upgrades, and workforce training over the next 18 months.
Service rollout will begin in October 2025, with full national coverage planned by Q2 2026. Evri confirmed that its U.S. subsidiary will retain the acquired company’s existing operating authority and USDOT number.
