The Global Freight Transport Market size was valued at US$ 30,910.21 million in 2022, and anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 12.4 % over the forecast period.
The market's expansion is attributed to the affordable shipping costs set by suppliers of goods transport services and the many free trade agreements between nations. For instance, the European Union and Canada established a comprehensive economic trade agreement. 98% of the tariffs on European goods traded between Europe and Canada are being eliminated by the Canadian government as a result of this agreement. By reducing commodity prices, that automatically boosts demand for freight transportation, such agreements contribute to the freight transport market growth.
Additionally, as e-commerce and entrepreneurial activity have increased, so has the demand for specialised freight transport and supply chain execution capabilities. Reduced logistics, inventory, and fixed expenses are benefits for shippers who hire freight transportation services. Due to their inability to manage global supply chain activities, some businesses have outsourced their goods delivery operations as a result of globalisation. Cargo transportation companies offer better and more creative ways to maximise the efficiency of their services, offering benefits including lower capital costs, door-to-door service, flexibility, and a lower chance of damage during transit.
Due to the availability of effective supply chain management, the existence of significant market participants in the e-commerce industry, and the necessary infrastructure, the industry has significantly evolved across the U.S. and Europe. The capacity to track different goods and freight in transit gives e-commerce businesses a complete view of the inventory and activities, which influences the demand for freight transport solutions. Moreover, handling moving products, reducing disruptions, proactive status updates, and risk mitigation aid shippers in enhancing customer experience and reducing costs. The supply chain is therefore anticipated to become more resilient as a result of adequate visibility.
Offering Insights
Based on offering, the service segment held the major market share in 2022. The service segment is further bifurcated into managed services, business services, and system integration. The demand for freight management services, which help companies deliver freight and complete the supply chain effectively and economically, is primarily responsible for the segment's growth. By enabling just-in-time production, these services enable companies of all sizes to fulfil orders while requiring little in the way of storage space and shipping inventory.
Transportation Mode Insights
In terms of transportation mode, the roadways segment accounted for a significant market share in 2022 and is projected to continue its dominance over the course of forecast period due to the fastest door-to-door services for short distances. It also ensures cost effectiveness since there is a lower capital investment needed compared to other kinds of transportation. This form of transportation also has a huge carrying capacity, which makes it a popular option for moving goods. The expansion of this market segment is also being aided by the rising efforts made by governments around the world to boost road travel.
For instance, the Indian government has implemented a national logistics programme to streamline corporate operations and lower transportation costs. As part of this programme, the government is building a motorway network from the port area to the country's outlying regions in order to cut fuel usage, which is seen to be the factor that has the greatest impact on freight transport costs.
Industry Vertical Insights
In terms of industry verticals, the retail & e-commerce segment dominated the major market share in 2022 and is expected to continue to dominate the market during the forecast period due to surging cross-border e-commerce sales and a growing freight transport market. The retail and e-commerce industries use freight transportation to transport goods like groceries, gadgets, personal care items, furniture, clothing, and among others.
Regional Insights
In terms of region, North America dominated the market in 2022, owing to the occurrence of several major freight solution providers, logistics players, and e-commerce giants in the U.S. and Canada. The continuing development and adoption of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, near-field communication, and machine learning also contribute to the expansion of the market. For instance, United Parcel Service of America, Inc. joined the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BITA), a platform for the standardised use of blockchain technology and its training in the freight industry. The company was able to build its smart logistics network owing to this. Due to the widespread use of goods transport services in manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce, the U.S. is projected to continue its dominance over the course projected period.
Furthermore, Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR during the projected period due to significant potential in the region's automotive, packaging, pharmaceutical, and other industrial uses might be attributed for the growth. The Asia Pacific freight transport market is also anticipated to expand as a result of increased industrial facilities brought on by a variety of government incentives, and simple land availability supported by sizable markets.
Key Companies Insights
Some of the major companies studied under the market scope are as follows: C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc., Deutsche Post DHL Group (The Deutsche Post AG), FedEx Corporation, Kuehne + Nagel International AG (Kuehne Holding AG), United Parcel Service, Inc., Schneider National, Inc., SAP SE, Nippon Express Co., Ltd., Oracle Corporation, DSV A/S, and Others. The existence of several companies on a global and regional scale creates intense rivalry for major players operating in the ecosystem. These players also use a variety of strategies, including merger and acquisition, the introduction of new products, geographic expansion, R&D for increasing their product portfolio, and others.
In 2022, An agreement was signed by United Parcel Service (UPS) with Jumia, the Pan-African e-commerce platform. By this Partnership, Jumia would expand United Parcel Service's infrastructure and logistical capabilities in order to improve its delivery service selection across Africa.
