The latest reading of the Poczta Polska Christmas Barometer shows that between December 8 and 14, Poles sent nearly 66 percent more parcels than in a typical period this year.
Poczta Polska is delivering more and more parcels week by week. The Christmas Barometer index reached 165.78 percent in the second week of December. This is 13.32 percent higher than in the previous week.
The Poczta Polska Christmas Barometer is the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the total number of parcels sent via Poczta Polska in a given week to the average number of parcels sent weekly between February 1 and October 31. For example: if the barometer shows a value of 150%, the number of parcels sent during the week exceeds the average number of parcels sent weekly from February 1 to October 31 by 50%. The barometer includes all domestic and international postal parcels as well as Pocztex and EMS courier shipments sent via Poczta Polska S.A.
