The growing adoption of advanced analytics and machine learning are among the trends sure to shape digital freight forwarding. Some of the other trends that will influence the industry are:
More capacity, but with demand volatility: The transport and logistics industry is facing a testing combination of declining demand for freight alongside increasing capacity. The result of this scenario for freight forwarders is increased competition and rate fluctuations.
Climate change and geopolitical tensions loom large: These factors can affect supplies of resources, cut off transportation routes, interrupt production, and raise costs. Freight forwarders need to prioritise agility, flexibility, and visibility so that they are primed to anticipate challenges and navigate supply chain disruptions quickly and effectively.
Waves of consolidation: The mergers and acquisition market in the freight forwarding sector has been increasingly active since the start of the pandemic and there are no signs of a letup in 2024. This will lead to a more concentrated market with fewer players and more economies of scale.
Growth in e-commerce driving digital freight forwarding: E-commerce is one of the most popular online activities worldwide, both domestic and cross-border. This encompasses not just direct-to-consumer retail, but also shipments of electronics, pharmaceuticals, and consumer packaged goods. Digital freight forwarding can help meet the rising customer expectations for faster lead times, expanded services and customised offerings.
Rise in adoption of direct-to-consumer (DTC) e-commerce logistics and cost cutting and lead time reduction due to adoption of multi-modal system: These are some of the opportunities that digital freight forwarding can leverage to gain a competitive edge and increase customer satisfaction.
