Case Study: Posti Group achieves faster supplier payments and improved working capital with OpusCapita

Supply Chain Cash Flows On The Move

Posti Group, a leading postal, logistics and e‑commerce provider (Group net sales EUR 1,650 million in 2015), needed to strengthen cooperation with its many transport subcontractors, support smaller suppliers’ short‑term financing needs, reduce supplier risk and improve working‑capital circulation. To address this challenge Posti partnered with OpusCapita to roll out a bank‑independent supply chain finance program and digital onboarding for its largely SME supplier base.

OpusCapita delivered an automated, browser‑based supply chain finance platform that lets suppliers approve invoices and receive payment as early as the next banking day (financing is enabled in three clicks) without tying up collateral. The solution improved cash‑flow transparency and forecasting, gave SMEs like Kuljetusliike Pöytälaakso faster access to cash (avoiding higher bank interest and penalty costs), and is scalable across Posti’s roughly 1,000 transport subcontractors — directly supporting Posti Group’s goal to reduce supplier risk and accelerate working capital.
