Courier companies have always played an essential role in ensuring timely delivery of goods to their customers and clients. However, with the advent of COVID, courier companies have had to adapt to the demand for their services. Part of this was due to the rapid rise of online shopping in 2020 when Covid hit, since then the demand and rise of e-commerce is still the same in 2023.
The pandemic accelerated the shift towards online shopping. With lockdowns and restrictions in place, people had to rely on online shopping more than ever before. This resulted in a massive increase in demand for courier services. According to recent statistics, E-commerce sales were just 19.1% of total retail sales in the UK before the pandemic. In January 2022 this increased to 27.1%. Showing us the demand for securing the right courier company has never been so important.
Not only did covid affect the rise in e-commerce, but it also brought to light that sub-contracting couriers for logistics was a perfect solution. As businesses were asked to work from home and not leave, this gave Wind Couriers a chance to support a wide range of businesses with their courier needs.
We are now back to a “normal” way of living and we continue to supply and work with the same companies that thought they only required us for a short period of time. They soon realised that our team could help service their clients beyond the pandemic.
