The sub-index for development scale increased 29.8 percent year on year to 407.1, partly due to the high delivery demand during the Spring Festival holiday. The sub-index for service quality grew 39.4 percent from a year earlier, and the sub-index for development capacity increased 7.1 percent year on year, the data showed. The index is compiled based on data from major logistics firms operating delivery services. It reflects the overall business activities and trends in the country's courier sector. |
