Mission & Interests

Goals: The European Express Association (EEA) represents global and local express delivery companies in Europe, whose core business is the provision of door-to-door transport and deliveries of next-day or time-definite shipments domestically and across the globe. In the European Union, the express industry directly employs 330,000 workers and supports some 1.1 million jobs across the EU. It delivers more than 450 million packages each year, constituting almost half of the intra-European air cargo market. The EEA provides the express industry with a voice at both European and national levels to promote and protect the industry’s interests and objectives in line with the needs of their customers. The EEA consists of three committees, which cover: Trade Facilitation & Customs, Transport & Environment and Security. The secretariat for the European Express Association is provided by Penta (formerly Hume Brophy), an external public affairs and communications consultancy.
