NACEX

What NACEX does

NACEX is a leading express courier company operating across Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and Benelux, with 30+ years of operating history under the Logista Group (parent: DRONAS 2002, S.L.U.). The company delivers time-definite national services (NACEX 8:30H, 10:00H, 12:00H, 19:00H, same-day, Saturday), international express and e-commerce services, and temperature-controlled pharmaceutical logistics (NACEXpharma at 15-25°C and 2-8°C with PHARMA BOX isotermal packaging). Its underlying technology stack includes a centralized logistics management platform with real-time tracking, a customer-facing portal (My NACEX), iOS/Android mobile apps, and a webservice API with e-commerce platform integration modules. Sorting operations are supported by Körber-powered Crossbelt Lineal sorters with 5-sided color vision barcode reading at major hubs in Valencia, Oporto, Jaén, and Montijo, with network capacity exceeding 164,900 parcels per hour.

NACEX operates through an exclusive franchise distribution model comprising 300+ agency offices, 35 hubs, and 4,000+ NACEX.shop pickup points, supported by 3,000+ vehicles and 5,000+ collaborators. Revenue is generated primarily through transaction fees on courier and parcel delivery, supplemented by recurring subscription-style account holder services that provide preferential pricing, free proof of delivery (POD), and information alerts. The company targets B2B enterprise customers with vertical specialization in pharma/healthcare, e-commerce, technical services, and dental/medical sectors, alongside B2C services accessible via NACEX.shop pickup points. E-commerce solutions include e-NACEX, e-NACEX.shop (sustainable delivery), NACEX Sw@p (in-delivery exchange), returns economy, and e-NACEX economy. Pricing is quote-based, not publicly disclosed, and includes a fuel surcharge indexed to monthly diesel prices published by the Spanish Ministry of Industry, Tourism, and Trade.

The company's strategic positioning centers on franchise-driven territorial coverage, technology-enabled traceability, and specialized vertical solutions. Recent investments include new platforms in Montijo, Portugal (2026) and upgrades to Oporto (2024) and Valencia (2022) with Körber sorting technology, alongside expansion of the NACEX.shop network where deliveries doubled in the last year. NACEX holds TAPA A security certification (Coslada platform), and has received multiple 2025 industry recognitions including the Premio Especial Estrategia at the Premios Internacionales de Movilidad and the Marca Recomendada 2026 in Portugal. The company's corporate governance is anchored by Logista Group as the strategic parent providing infrastructure support, while franchisees independently manage client relationships within defined catchment areas.
