Japan Post Co. and e-commerce giant Rakuten Inc. are teaming up to offer lockers where customers can pick up items purchased online at their own convenience, sources said on Thursday.
The new service, being arranged to start in April at about 30 locations including post offices in Tokyo, will allow clients of the major internet mall to have items delivered without revealing their addresses.
The two firms will consider adding locations across Japan after the limited launch, the sources said.
