WARSAW, Sept 5 (Reuters) - Polish e-commerce company Allegro's ALEP.WA CEO on Friday denied that the company was in dispute with any of its partners, despite its relationship with delivery partner InPost INPST.AS souring in recent months.
"We do not believe that we are involved in any business or other disputes with any entity," Allegro's CEO Marcin Kusmierz, who took the top job in June, told reporters when asked about InPost.
InPost shares, which fell around 13% on Tuesday after it reported slower volumes growth in Poland, were up 4.8% at 0945 GMT. Shares in Allegro were up 2.6%.
InPost, which according to JPMorgan gets 30% of its Polish revenue from Allegro, had recently filed an arbitration claim against Allegro, saying that it had breached their long-term delivery agreement.
InPost says Allegro has been redirecting customers to its own lockers. Commenting on the claim on Tuesday, InPost CEO Rafal Brzoska said the company had to look after the interests of its shareholders.
