Rise in Online Shopping

The continuous growth of e-commerce, driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, is leading to a significant increase in parcel volumes as consumers increasingly prefer online shopping over traditional retail. According to the International Trade Administration, eCommerce revenues in the UK are expected to have an annual average growth rate of 12.6% by 2025. The UK has the third largest e-commerce market in the world after China, and the U.S. Consumer e-commerce now accounts for 36.3% of the total retail market in the UK (as of Jan 2021), with e-commerce revenue projected to increase to $285.60 billion by 2025. In 2022, UK online sales saw its highest annual growth since 2007 with sales increasing by 36%.

Significant Technological Advancements

The increasing innovations in logistics technology, including automated sorting systems, real-time tracking, and last-mile delivery solutions, have helped enhance efficiency, reduce delivery times, and improve overall customer satisfaction, which, in turn, is fueling the market growth. For instance, in November 2023, Guernsey Post completed the installation of automated parcel sorting equipment. The post office implemented the£1.8m parcel sorter at its Envoy House headquarters.
