The Evolving Logistics Landscape and the U.S. Postal Service

Logistics is emerging as a prime means for posts and their partners to enhance their offerings, which could be critical in the face of changing and declining mail volumes. The continued growth of ecommerce packages is stretching the capacity of the logistics and transportation systems. The logistics industry is quickly growing and represents significant opportunities and risks to the Postal Service. Many aspects of the logistics industry are central to the Postal Service’s core business. By expanding its logistics offerings, the Postal Service could better retain or grow its package delivery business.
