A security guard conducts checks on workers during a shift change at the LJR warehouse in Jakarta, Indonesia, on March 4, 2026. As the country with the world's largest Muslim population, Ramadan marks one of Indonesia's biggest periods of economic circulation, driven by a surge in consumer spending and business activity across multiple sectors. The momentum contributes significantly to domestic consumption growth--the largest component of the country's GDP--seasonal inflation, particularly in food prices, and increased cash circulation. As a result, courier companies report shipment volumes rising by 30 to 50 percent compared to normal days, spanning sectors such as pharmaceuticals, automotive spare parts, apparel, FMCG (Fast-Moving Consumer Goods), and F&B (Food and Beverage).
