Abstract

The analysis conducted in this paper covers the period 2019-2021 aiming to highlight the impact of the global crisis resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic and affecting postal and courier services in Romania. This is one of the sectors that, especially thanks to e-commerce, has seen increases in its activity. Particular details of the post and courier sector are presented, as well as its dynamics during the analyzed period, regarding the number of active companies, turnover, number of employees, and productivity. The main competitors in the sector (Top 10) are highlighted, which are ranked according to the turnover in the year 2021, and as far as the Romanian National Postal Company is concerned, which occupies the first position in this ranking or hierarchy, the main economic and financial performance indicators are presented. The analysis clearly shows a strong concentration of the sector, with the top 10 companies that provide postal and courier services securing nearly 70% of the total turnover of the sector in 2021.
