Automotive Logistics Market

The automotive logistics market is projected to grow from USD 284.1 billion in 2018 to USD 472.9 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 7.55%. Increase in vehicle production and demand for raw materials and components are the key drivers for the growing logistics market. Also, infrastructural development in developing countries has given a boost to the automotive logistics market.

The automotive logistics market is consolidated and dominated by a few global players. The key players are DHL (Germany), XPO (US), SNCF (France), Kuehne + Nagel (Switzerland), and DSV (Denmark).

The industry has adopted key strategies such as expansions and partnerships. For instance, DHL Logistics opened a new facility near Shannon Airport. This would increase its daily carrying capacity from just over 20 tons to over 30 tons on each import and export flight. Also, DHL and Latvijas dzelzcelš (LDz), a state-owned Latvian railway company, have signed a contract to establish multi-modal rail connections between China and Latvia. Through this agreement, Riga would be established as a logistics hub for the Baltic and Nordic regions. New freight connections will give the Baltic states easier access to immense untapped export opportunities in China and the Asia Pacific region.
