Third Party Logistics Market Overview
Third party logistics is the process by which the supplier/manufacturer outsources logistics and distribution-related activities. Third party logistics companies provide various services that are related to supply chain logistics.

By outsourcing these logistics services, end-users can concentrate on other business aspects such as distribution, promotion, and product development.
Third Party Logistics Market Trends
Growth Drivers
Increase in Trading Activities Driving the Market
With the implementation of new technologies that have enabled fast trade between countries and real-time tracking of carriers, trading activities between countries have increased in recent years. According to the latest World Trade Organization (WTO) data, global exports rose by 46% in value terms in Q2 2021. WTO has estimated that the global trade volume of merchandise would go up by 10.8% in 2021 followed by a 4.7% in 2022. The WTO-UNCTAD-ITC estimates that global transport exports grew by around 7.5% in 2019, with Europe recording an increase of about 9%. During the forecast period, as countries move towards self-sufficiency and trade between countries increases, the demand for third party logistics technology is expected to rise and contribute to the growth of the global third-party logistics technology market.
Growth of Seaborne Trade Contributing to the Growth of Market
International seaborne trade continues to grow as shipping contributes significantly to the global economy. Due to industrialization and the liberalization of national economies, iron ore and coal demand have risen, primarily met by seaborne trade. With the increase in import/export of goods and commodities of dry bulk, and the growth of e-commerce and three-dimensional printing, the demand for dry bulk shipping has increased significantly. According to the International Chamber of Shipping, approximately 90% of world trade is carried out by the international shipping industry. The expanding seaborne trade has increased the demand for third-party logistics technology across the globe to facilitate efficient transport of goods from one place to another. Furthermore, the growth of emerging economies is expected to propel the demand for seaborne trading in the coming years, further promoting the need for Third party logistics technology and fueling the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Restraints
Lack of proper IT Infrastructure in the logistics industry slowing the market growth
Warehouses are the heartbeat of the global logistics industry. Poorly architected infrastructure and incorrect implementation of the IT resources at the warehouses are the biggest challenges the companies face in streamlining their supply chains. The lack of adequate information technology infrastructure in the logistics industry and across warehouses has made the implementation of third-party logistics technology quite challenging. Furthermore, there are no standardized solutions for hardware or software, no basic security in systems and operations, and underinvestment issues in global warehouses. These factors are expected to be a major restraint for the growth of the third-party logistics market during the forecast period.
Impact of COVID-19 on Third Party Logistics Market
The shock supply chains around the world had to receive due to COVID-19 was unprecedented. There have been several problems for the supply chain management due to unpredicted demand for several products, restrictions on travel, and production issues. In order to cope with disruptions in delivery networks, many companies adopted robotic process automation and turned to drone delivery. Supply chain strategies are being adopted in the aftermath of the pandemic to make organizations more resilient, collaborative, and strengthen their relationships with customers and suppliers.
Third-Party Logistics Market- By Services
The global third-party logistic industry is fragmented into warehousing, domestic transportation, international transportation, inventory management, and others, based on the services offered. Among these, the domestic transportation services segment dominates the market. With the growth of globalization, clients require efficient logistics operations that can meet their urgent delivery requirements. Therefore, the domestic transportation services segment is expected to see the fastest growth in the third party logistics market in the forecast period. However, the international transportation services segment is also catching up as the demand for international transportation management services has increased globally.
Third-Party Logistics Market- By Mode of Transportation
Based on transport modes, the global third-party logistic market is bifurcated into railways, waterways, roadways, and airways. Amongst these, the roadways transport mode is projected to dominate the Global Third-Party Logistics market during the forecast period. A greater focus on creating a logistics network and a public-private highway construction partnership model is helping to stimulate the growth of third-party logistics services via road transport. Government programs and investments to build road transport networks have resulted in an increased number of vendors embracing road transportation modes. However, the airways segment will likely emerge as the fastest-growing segment over the forecast period.
Third-Party Logistics Market- Regional Insights
The global third-party logistics market is spread across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. Among these regions, the Asia Pacific accounted for the maximum revenue share in 2020 and is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market during the forecast period. On the other hand, the growth of the market in North America is projected to continue, driven by current economic policies, enhanced rail, road, sea, and air infrastructure, and significant logistics enterprises established in the region. The market in North America is expected to grow as both traditional logistics companies and new e-commerce enterprises invest in this industry. Furthermore, the region's emerging economies are likely to boost warehousing and logistics demand with continued investment in trains, bridges, and airways over the projected period.
