With this year’s Spring Festival holiday lasting only six days and no public holidays before New Year’s Eve, more people are expected to stay in Taiwan for the holidays. As a result, demand for home delivery services—including sending luggage back home, delivering New Year gifts, and purchasing festive goods—is set to surge significantly. In addition to keeping all of its service points across Taiwan open as usual during the Lunar New Year period, Black Cat Delivery also partners with convenience stores such as 7-ELEVEN and OK Mart, which offer 24-hour package drop-off services without closure.

This year, with the domestic economy showing clear signs of recovery, consumer willingness to shop at various retail channels is also on the rise. After going on major shopping sprees, more people are expected to use home delivery services to send their purchases directly to their homes. It is predicted that in the three weeks leading up to Lunar New Year, there will be twice as many delivery requests compared to normal days, which is also expected to drive overall business growth by nearly 20%. According to past delivery data, nearly 40,000 students send their luggage home via Black Cat Courier during winter vacation each year, with students from southern Taiwan showing the highest demand. Consumer enthusiasm for buying Lunar New Year goods and selecting festive gifts for family and friends is also very strong before the holiday. Uni-President Express has observed that people are purchasing Lunar New Year goods in increasingly diverse ways. In addition to shopping at traditional markets, there has been a significant increase in consumers relying on large hypermarkets or shopping online for festive items. Aside from buying dried goods such as regional specialties and seasonal snacks, market-cooked dishes are also very popular. As a result, in markets with a high proportion of cooked food, such as Nanmen Market, the volume of low-temperature package deliveries can reach nearly 80%.

In addition to luggage, many companies also purchase high-end fruit gift boxes directly from fruit vendors and send them to clients. As a result, Black Cat Courier has also set up collection points at locations such as Taipei’s Binjiang Fruit and Vegetable Market and Taipei’s Sanchong Fruit and Vegetable Market. The company is also offering delivery discounts in conjunction with Lunar New Year market events, such as those at Taipei’s Dihua Street Lunar New Year Market, Taipei’s Nanmen Market, New Taipei’s Sanchong Fruit and Vegetable Market, and Kaohsiung’s Sanfengzhong Street Lunar New Year Market. In principle, collection services will continue until February 1st, with varying deadlines. The regular price of NT$160 for delivering Lunar New Year goods can be discounted down to as low as NT$100, with each location also offering different promotional gifts.
