While the end customer segment is growing, the B2B business remains in decline - a trend that will continue in the Christmas business. In an outlook, the German Parcel and Express Logistics Association (BPEX) expects moderate growth in total CEP shipment volumes of between 1% and 3% in November and December compared to the previous year. A total of around 735 million CEP shipments are expected to be transported in Germany during the Christmas period - around 10 million more than in the 2023 Christmas season.
