Integrated Logistics in Australia - Industry Market Research Report

Posting a win: Thanks to technological developments and enhanced productivity, revenue will rise

The Integrated Logistics sector has expanded in recent years, underpinned by growing trade volumes, a surge in online shopping activity and the rising popularity of business process outsourcing. Soaring fuel costs and supply chain disruptions have led to climbing freight rates, further boosting sector revenue. However, intense competition in some segments has inhibited the ability of many operators to pass on rising costs, squeezing sector-wide profit margins. Despite the pandemic disrupting the sector, integrated logistics revenue is expected to grow at an annualised 3.4% over the five years through 2022-23 and is anticipated to reach $121.4 billion in 2022-23, when revenue will decline by an estimated 0.7%. Companies in this sector provide logistics, transport, storage, handling, distribution and other support services to transport companies as part of third-party vertically integrated supply networks. The sector does not include bulk freight services, which are typically provided by water freight transport and rail freight transport operators. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
