Australia Post acquired Rendr on April 3, 2026. Deal terms were not disclosed.
Rendr is a last-mile delivery orchestration platform that connects merchants with courier partners in real time. Founded in 2020 by Greg Leibowitz and James Fisher, the startup raised $2.1M in 2021 from investors including former Australia Post CEO Ahmed Fahour.
The acquisition lets Australia Post offer same-day delivery to nearly 90% of the country, with expanded evening and weekend windows. Gary Starr, Executive GM for Parcel, Post, and E-commerce Services, said the move gives Australian retailers tools to compete with mega-marketplaces on delivery speed.
Rendr will operate standalone initially before integrating into Australia Post's platforms.
What we don't know
No public data exists on:
- Rendr's sales team size or structure

Sonney Roth is listed as Rendr CEO, with Leibowitz as co-founder. No details on whether the leadership team is staying through integration.
Market context
Rendr targeted Australian retailers with nationwide courier optimisation, competing in a fragmented last-mile market alongside CouriersPlease and Sendle. Australia Post holds the dominant position with government ownership and existing infrastructure.
For sales professionals in logistics tech: this signals continued M&A appetite in ANZ last-mile delivery, but the lack of disclosed metrics makes it hard to benchmark against other exits in the space.
Worth noting: Rendr had been operating for six years pre-acquisition on a single seed round. That's a long runway on $2.1M, which suggests either lean operations or revenue sustainability. We just don't have the numbers to know which.
