ZAGREB, 31 May 2016 – Positive trends on the postal services market in the Republic of Croatia continued in the first quarter of 2016. Revenue from postal services grew by 5 percent compared to the same period in 2015, although the total number of services stayed at the same level, that is, almost identical number of services was provided in 2016 and 2015.
