Parcel revenues showed satisfactory improvement on last year. In particular, we continue to see good growth in our B2B parcels business which represents in excess of 80% of parcels revenues.
Our Mail business, UK Mail, continues to achieve strong growth, driven by new business wins together with further mail volumes from existing customers.
