The local general freight trucking market size has grown marginally in recent years. It will grow from $131.36 billion in 2023 to $133.79 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including economic growth in emerging markets, expansion in the building and construction sector, and an increase in disposable income.
The local general freight trucking market size is expected to see marginal growth in the next few years. It will grow to $144.45 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing sales in e-commerce, a rise in urbanization, and growing demand for raw materials from the manufacturing industries. Key trends expected during this period include the use of artificial intelligence (AI), a focus on the Internet of Things (IoT), increased mergers and acquisitions, rising investments, and a surge in partnerships and collaborations.
The anticipated growth of the local freight trucking market in the forecast period is driven by the increasing sales in the e-commerce sector. E-commerce, involving online transactions for buying and selling goods and services, heavily relies on trucking for the transportation of items between locations. For example, in September 2022, the International Trade Administration reported that consumer e-commerce accounts for 30% of the UK's overall retail sector, representing a substantial increase from 20% in 2020. This surge in e-commerce sales, totaling more than $120 billion annually, amplifies the demand for efficient goods transportation, consequently fueling the growth of the local freight trucking market.
The growth of the local general freight trucking market is expected to be propelled by the increasing number of goods deliveries. The term 'goods delivery' refers to the process of transporting and supplying products to their intended destinations. Local general freight trucking plays a pivotal role in facilitating swift and cost-effective deliveries within specific geographic regions, addressing the immediate needs of businesses and consumers. For instance, Tesla Inc. reported a notable year-on-year growth in vehicle deliveries, reaching over 405,000 deliveries out of more than 439,000 produced vehicles in 2022. This rise in the number of goods deliveries is a significant factor driving the expansion of the local general freight trucking market.
A prominent trend in the local general freight trucking market is the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) into the transportation sector. The IoT is poised to revolutionize the transport industry by collecting data related to market and technological advancements, employing data analytics, and automating mobility processes. Companies worldwide are leveraging IoT for improved productivity and efficiency, with applications ranging from data gathering to fleet management and location tracking. For instance, Kuehne + Nagel, a Swiss-based transport and logistics company, utilizes IoT for freight monitoring, providing real-time alerts about temperature, humidity, pressure, shock, and tilt at the parcel level.
