Post Denmark: Parcel Market Stabilizes

The Danish post office’s volume of international parcels fell 0.6 percent in the first half to 15.7 million, from 15.8 million a year earlier, the company said in its half-year report. ‘This indicates that the situation in the parcel market has stabilised again after a period of sustained sharp decreases,’ Post Denmark said. The post office’s turnover in the international parcel market was 526 million Danish crowns ($64.39 million), down 13.1 percent compared to last year. The drop stemmed mainly from the transfer of international parcel traffic to Pan Nordic Logistics, which has taken over these activities from the national post offices in Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
