The increasing pace of urbanization is expected to drive the growth of the farm product warehousing and storage market going forward. Urbanization is the process by which a growing share of the population resides in urban areas, commonly driven by rural-to-urban migration and natural population growth within cities and towns. Farm product warehousing and storage support urbanization by maintaining a reliable supply of fresh and stored agricultural products to urban centers. As urban populations expand, demand for a wide variety of farm products continues to increase. These storage facilities enable the safe and efficient preservation of produce, grains, and other perishable commodities, helping ensure that urban consumers receive a consistent supply of quality food products. For instance, in November 2025, according to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, a Secretariat-level department of the United Nations headquartered in the United States, cities housed about 45% of the global population of 8.2 billion people, and from now until 2050, nearly two-thirds of worldwide population growth is expected to occur in cities, with most of the remaining growth taking place in towns. Therefore, rising urbanization is driving the growth of the farm product warehousing and storage market.
