Itella

Itella is a Finnish postal and logistics company, headquartered in Helsinki. It provides mail and parcel delivery, parcel distribution, freight, warehousing, and e-commerce logistics. It serves individual customers as well as businesses, and operates a network of post offices, parcel lockers, and courier services primarily in Finland, with operations in neighboring countries.

Itella originated as part of the Finnish state postal system and was reorganized into a separate corporate entity in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It expanded its activities beyond traditional mail into parcel, freight, and contract logistics, and developed digital services such as tracking, invoicing, and supply-chain software. In the 2010s, Itella reorganized and rebranded within the broader Posti Group, with many operations subsequently conducted under the Posti name. The Itella identity has since functioned largely as a brand or subsidiary within the group.

Services and operations: Itella offers domestic and international parcel delivery, express courier, and logistics solutions for e-commerce, warehousing and distribution, freight forwarding, and returns management. The company has emphasized digital logistics services, including tracking, analytics, and IT systems to support supply chains. Itella is part of Finland’s evolving postal and logistics landscape, alongside other operators such as Posti and international partners.
