The buyers – investment firms Advent International and A&R Investments, American delivery giant FedEx, and Czech group PPF – will pay EUR 15.60 per share for the company.
The deal values InPost at a 50 percent premium to its share price on 2 January and is expected to complete in the second half of 2026.
The company’s total share value has been estimated at EUR 7.8 billion.
InPost's founder and chief executive, Rafał Brzoska, will remain in his role and continue to lead the business.
The firm's headquarters and management will stay in Poland.
Under the new ownership structure, American firms Advent and FedEx will together control 74 percent of the company, with Advent holding 37 percent, FedEx 37 percent, A&R 16 percent and PPF 10 percent.
The consortium plans to launch a tender offer for all InPost shares "as soon as possible", subject to regulatory approvals including antitrust clearance.
The offer is conditional on acquiring at least 80 percent of the company's shares.
After the takeover, InPost and FedEx plan to work together, combining FedEx's worldwide delivery network with InPost's parcel locker systems.
InPost's automated lockers allow customers to collect and send parcels at their convenience.
The company handled 351.5 million parcels in the third quarter of last year, up 34 percent from the previous year.
