AMZ123 Cross-border NewsletterAMZ123 has learned that Germany's total parcel delivery volume is expected to increase by 2.6% year-on-year to approximately 3.8 billion items by 2025. According to the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung," this growth is primarily driven by B2C e-commerce activities, while B2B inter-enterprise shipping has declined due to economic weakness. Compared to the high-speed expansion of about 12% annually during the COVID-19 pandemic, the current market growth rate has significantly slowed down and is gradually returning to normal levels.
Currently, DHL still holds a leading position in the German parcel market, with Hermes, DPD, GLS, FedEx, UPS, and other companies sharing the remaining market share. Industry insiders suggest that cross-border e-commerce sellers should consider the local delivery market structure and fulfillment experience when arranging their presence in the German market, choose logistics channels reasonably, and pay attention to the increasing return rate and the cost control of last-mile delivery in the context of the continuous growth of B2C parcels.
Seller's Home Review
Germany's parcel volume is expected to increase to 3.8 billion items by 2025, with B2C e-commerce being the main growth engine, while B2B business continues to contract. Sellers should seize the normal growth of the e-commerce-driven market, focusing on optimizing the cost and timeliness of B2C logistics to Germany to cope with market segmentation.
