KUALA LUMPUR: Pos Malaysia Bhd expects parcel volumes to increase by between 15 per cent and 20 per cent during the Hari Raya Aidilfitri period this year compared with ordinary months, driven largely by purchases of Raya clothing and hijabs.

The national courier company said the festive season typically brings a significant surge in parcel volumes during the Ramadan-to-Hari Raya period, well above its normal monthly run rate.
