Long-Distance Specialized Freight Trucking in Canada

Over the past five years, tank and refrigeration truckers in Canada have faced a downturn as they weren't able to immediately rebound from challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Social distancing protocols led to reduced operating capacities that cut industrial production and trade, which in turn cut the need for tank and refrigeration trucks to carry goods. While many industries began to recover as the pandemic subsided, skyrocketing oil prices and lingering supply chain issues prevented tank and refrigeration truckers from capturing slowly returning demand. Industry-wide revenue has been falling at a CAGR of 1.3% over the past five years and is expected to total $15.2 billion in 2023, when revenue will dip by an estimated 1.0%.
