Highlights

The Hungarian express and parcels market is primarily dominated by the integrators, namely DHL, TNT and UPS. The national postal operator, Magyar Posta, is the fourth largest player in the overall market followed by GLS Hungary and FedEx, the latter stronger on the international express air delivery segment.
Express and parcels delivery carriers in Romania generated some EUR94 million in 2004, making the country the fifth largest parcel market in Eastern Europe. Romania is the second fastest growing express and parcels market in the region, only behind Bulgaria, experiencing a 20% growth between 2004 and 2005.
For European express and parcels delivery providers there is an opportunity to benefit from growing parcel volumes in this region but they need to secure strategic partnerships and enlarge their geographical coverage, otherwise these players will have no chance to compete with the integrators and the larger pan-European postal houses.
