Polish Post eyes higher courier market share

Poland’s state-owned postal operator Poczta Polska (Polish Post) wants to increase its share in the country’s parcel and courier services market from the current 15 percent to at least 20 percent by 2020, the company’s management board member Janusz Wojtas told ISBnews. The focus will be on e-commerce, Wojtas said. Within several months Polish Post will create a single platform offering all types of services for e-commerce companies, he added. The courier and parcel services market has been growing for the past few years and it will continue to grow, especially in the B2C segment, Wojtas said. He also expects further growth in e-commerce in Poland.
