In 2023, European households allocated a small portion of their GDP to postal services. Bulgaria stands out with the highest expenditure of 0.4%, marking a notable increase of 5.92% year-on-year. Other countries like Romania, Cyprus, Iceland, and Malta, among others, showed stable spending trends, although Malta, the Netherlands, and Austria experienced a substantial 100% drop. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the past five years will offer more insight into these fleeting consumption shifts.
