Global Logistics Markets - Logistics in Transition
Global logistics providers face the challenge of making the right strategic decisions - they need to develop their current customer/region portfolio to secure access to growth markets.
The logistics industry is playing an increasingly important role in international commerce.
Global revenues had reached €981 billion by 2011 and the market for logistics services is expected to grow up to three percent per year worldwide in the period up to 2020.
According to Global Logistics Markets – Trend Analysis, a new market report by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and Barclays, logistics companies must adapt to new market trends that pose very challenging demands.
The logistics industry is presented with new opportunities, such as the growing importance of intra-regional markets, the expansion of E-Commerce and in providing specialized services to a range of industry sectors.
“The volatile market environment, the ever-stronger online market, the shift in markets towards Asia, and the growing demand for special transport services necessitate new corporate strategies and considerable investments on the part of logistics providers,” explains Dirk Friebel, logistics expert at Roland Berger.
