UK: Apex Insight reports parcel market growth
Financial Times, 21 Feb 2017, p.18:-
Estimates by Apex Insight put the value of the UK parcel market at GBP 9.70bn (EUR 11.34bn USD 12.04bn) in 2016, a 9.7% increase on the previous year. Apex Insight cited the business-to-consumer side from internet retail as the main driver of growth. There was also growth in packages dispatched by consumers as a result of people selling items through eBay and other virtual platforms and returning online purchases.
