As part of its partnership with Newcastle United Football Club, InPost UK reports that shoppers can now use its parcel lockers when they order any of the Premiership League team’s kits.

In a LinkedIn post, the company said: “Football fans can now get their new season kit delivered to their favourite local InPost locker by simply selecting InPost at checkout – they can even be delivered to our lockers at St James’ Park.”

It added: “We’re excited for what’s in store for our partnership in the upcoming 2024/25 season and beyond!”

Said partnership was announced at the tail end of last year.
