Digital transformation and e-commerce expansion drive this sector performance across the country. Rising smartphone adoption and broadband infrastructure development support increased online shopping activities. The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe reports that courier outlets dropped from 235 to 213 after FedEx closed 22 locations. Postal facilities maintained their count at 281 outlets throughout the quarter. Population density per service point shifted from 30,378 residents to 31,731 residents per outlet.
