Shipments Increase 7% and Account for 48% of Postal Revenues

Notícias Portugal12 September 2026 at 11:06

In the second quarter of 2026, the Brazilian postal sector recorded significant growth of 7% in parcel traffic compared to the same period in 2025. This increase is particularly relevant as parcels now represent 18.5% of the country's total postal traffic. Specialists point out that this growth is driven by the increasing preference of consumers for online shopping.

The analysis of the data indicates that rapid delivery services and logistics solutions have offered crucial support for this increase. Companies in the sector have been investing in technology and innovation to improve delivery efficiency, while the improvement in transport infrastructure also plays a fundamental role in facilitating the flow of parcels.

Postal services and logistics companies are adapting their strategies to meet this new scenario, focusing on streamlining processes and enhancing customer experience. This growth reflects a change in consumption habits and highlights the need for continuous investment in the sector to maintain competitiveness.

Market analysts predict that, if this trend continues, parcel traffic could become an even more significant part of postal operations in the coming years, indicating a permanent transformation in the sector.

Why this matters

For Brazilian consumers, this growth confirms the acceleration of home deliveries and the need for postal and logistics companies to invest in efficiency. Companies in the sector face pressure to adapt processes and infrastructure, while analysts closely monitor the transformation of the postal market due to changing shopping habits.

Next Monday, diesel will rise by two cents per liter in Portugal, while gasoline drops by four cents, according to ANAREC, taking into account the ISP discounts already announced by the Government. Prices should be around 2.132 euros per liter of diesel and 2.06 euros per liter of simple 95 gasoline, but still not hitting the maximum levels recorded in April. Since the attack on Iran, diesel has accumulated a rise of 49.4 cents and gasoline of 35 cents.
