ASK4 ANNOUNCE ACQUISITION OF PARCEL SAFEPLACE TO ACCELERATE DIGITAL AMENITY INNOVATION ACROSS MULTI-TENANT REAL ESTATE
- Strategic acquisition strengthens smart tech amenity services for multi-tenant living.
- Expands ASK4’s service portfolio beyond connectivity into PropTech and operational efficiency.
- Reinforces commitment to innovation, resident experience, and future-ready building infrastructure.
ASK4, a market-leading provider of high-speed Internet, WiFi, and managed IT services for multi-tenant buildings, has announced the acquisition of Parcel SafePlace, a leading digital concierge in residential developments, redefining parcel logistics with smart solutions for seamless deliveries.
Operating across the UK and 11 European countries, ASK4 is pursuing a focused strategy of strategic acquisitions to strengthen its service offering and expand its footprint in key real estate markets. The acquisition of Parcel SafePlace aligns with this strategy, enhancing ASK4’s ability to deliver best-in-class, amenity-led services that add operational value across build-to-rent (BTR), student housing, co-living, and office sectors. This move further reinforces ASK4’s commitment to providing industry-leading digital infrastructure and resident-first innovation.
Parcel SafePlace is trusted by operators and developers for its intelligent, data-driven parcel management solutions, including secure 24/7-access Parcel Rooms, PSP Lite, SmartVault storage, and Amazon Key for Business integration. The company currently supports over 99,000 units and has handled more than 2.6 million parcels in the past 12 months alone. It is a proven solution to one of the most persistent challenges in high-density living: managing the growing volume of parcel deliveries efficiently, securely, and at scale, to save time and streamline operations for property managers.
As part of the ASK4 Group, Parcel SafePlace will benefit from enhanced technical infrastructure, investment capability, and operational support. For ASK4 clients, the acquisition provides an amenity service that complements connectivity and elevates the resident experience.
Jon Thornhill, Group Strategy Director and Commercial Director at ASK4 said: “Parcel SafePlace solves a real and growing issue for our clients – securely and efficiently managing parcel deliveries at scale in a way that enhances the resident experience. We know that the Parcel SafePlace team have built a valuable proposition for the multi-tenant sector and we are excited to get behind its next phase of growth and innovation.”
Dustin Fjeld, Founder and CEO of Parcel SafePlace, added: “Joining forces with ASK4 unlocks powerful opportunities to scale our solutions, invest in new innovation, and better serve our clients and partners. We share a common vision of delivering practical, high-impact technology that improves everyday life in residential buildings, and we’re excited to build the future of data-led multi-tenant living, together, providing even greater value to our clients and the wider real estate sector.”
Andrew Dutton, CEO of ASK4 commented: “The acquisition of Parcel SafePlace is a significant step in ASK4’s strategy to deliver networked infrastructure services to power connected communities in multi-tenant buildings. This is part of a wider acquisition programme supported by our investors at GI Partners, focused on delivering essential value-adding smart living services into student housing, build-to-rent, co-living and later living across the UK and Europe.”
The news follows ASK4’s recent acquisition of ClearFibre in the UK and reflects its continued focus on delivering integrated, high-performance services to developers and operators across student housing, build-to-rent (BTR), co-living, and beyond. The addition of Parcel SafePlace brings a powerful new layer of PropTech capability to the Group, enhancing operational efficiency, sustainability, and resident satisfaction across its portfolio.
