Why Smart Lockers are the future of last‑mile delivery

Last‑mile delivery is one of the most expensive and complex parts of modern logistics. With growing e‑commerce demand and increasing pressure on couriers to deliver faster, buildings are struggling to handle a constant flow of parcels and food orders.

Smart lockers offer a practical, secure, and scalable solution. They eliminate the need for failed deliveries, reduce congestion at building entrances, and give residents the flexibility to collect parcels on their own time. For couriers and building managers, it’s faster! Smart Lockers are removing the need to wait for residents, provide building access or manage internal delivery systems.

Across Australia, Smart Locker technology is now being integrated into apartments, workplaces and universities. Unlike traditional locker systems, Foodifox Smart Lockers can manage BOTH food to personal parcels within a single unit, while providing automated notifications and digital tracking.

According to market reports, the global smart locker market is projected to grow by over 15% annually through 2026, driven by increased demand for contactless delivery and e‑commerce efficiency.

For building managers and developers, installing smart lockers is more than a convenience, it’s a value‑add feature that improves security, tenant satisfaction, and the building’s appeal to future residents.

We’re already helping streamline groundfloor deliveries and connect brands with residents at leading sites across Australia; including UniLodge, Scape, The Switch, and UNSW. With new locations joining the Foodifox network every month.

Smart delivery and in-building media are already here.
