This report focuses on
one of the fastest-growing areas of the parcels industry: those services
designed to carry parcels on behalf of consumers and small businesses, such as
eBay or Amazon Marketplace sellers. In it we quantify the market size,
historical growth rates, segmentation patterns and levels of industry
profitability while reviewing key factors behind these figures. We also carry
out an in-depth analysis of the relevant drivers of industry growth. This
includes trends in home shopping, the growth of eBay and its peers and the
development, by existing players and new entrants, of new services targeted at
this segment. Leading operators focusing on the C2X sector are profiled, their
strategies and positioning are reviewed and their performance and prospects are
analysed.

The report sets out
historical trends in a data-rich document with over 30 charts and tables. It
contains our forecast for C2X segment growth which is based on analysis of
historical trends and our understanding of growth drivers.
What are the objectives of this report?
The UK parcels industry
has continued to grow, however the traditional business-to-business (B2B)
segment is increasingly mature. To find growth, carriers have had to look first
to consumer deliveries (B2C) as home shopping became increasingly important,
and now, as marketplaces such as eBay and Amazon continue to grow and increased
home shopping leads to ever more returns, to parcels consigned by consumers and
eBay sellers (C2X parcels).
The report is intended
for parcels carriers and logistics groups, home-shopping retailers, operators
of C2X parcels service providers, potential entrants to the segment, investors,
banks, analysts, consultants and other parties with interests in the area.
