Geopost processed 392 million parcels across Europe during the 2025 peak period, covering November and December, according to figures released by the parcel delivery and e-commerce logistics group.
The total represents a 9.1% year-on-year increase compared with the same period in 2024. Geopost said volumes exceeded expectations, with demand remaining strong across multiple European markets during the year-end shopping season.
Peak day was recorded on December 1, when 12.2 million parcels were processed across the network. This was a 4.8% increase compared with Geopost’s peak day in 2024.
“The peak period represents a critical time for our business every year. This year’s strong performance is a testament to the hard work put in by all Geopost teams during this period and the trust placed in us by our customers and partners who value the robust and reliable European network we have built over time, offering affordable, sustainable and practical delivery options best suited to their needs,” said Yves Delmas, CEO of Geopost.
According to the company, its integrated European network was able to absorb higher parcel volumes while maintaining service quality during the busiest weeks of the year.
Several national business units recorded double-digit growth during the period. DPD Belgium reported a 30.3% increase in volumes, while SEUR in Spain saw growth of 17.7%. DPD Poland recorded a 15.1% increase compared with the 2024 peak period.
Out-of-home deliveries also grew strongly. In France, Geopost processed 24 million out-of-home parcels between November and December, with a weekly peak of 1.4 million parcels during the week of December 8 to 14.
Across Europe, out-of-home parcel volumes increased by 29% year-on-year during the 2025 peak period, reflecting continued growth in alternative delivery options such as parcel lockers and pickup points.
