The U.K.’s Royal Mail plans to save Christmas deliveries with 2.5 million IoT Pixels

Wiliot IoT Pixel tags are being placed throughout the U.K. mail service to ensure Christmas deliveries go off without a hitch.

We’re gearing up for the holiday season, a time when parcel shipments go crazy. Last year, in the three months leading up to December 2023, the U.K.’s Royal Mail—the country’s equivalent of the USPS—handled 387 million parcels, up 36% from a year before. Every day, the service saw more than 4 million items going through its system, including a good number of those internationally. This year volumes are expected to be even higher as more of us turn to e-commerce websites to fill Santa’s sleigh.
