Datamonitor, Feb 2008, Pages: 16
Given that the logistics market is highly fragmented, margins low and the global economy on a knife-edge, this brief offers an essential overview of the sector and its future. The State of the Industry - Logistics brief contains a detailed review of the global picture in 2007, its impact on the logistics industry and the major players, as well as The forecasts for the coming year.
Scope
- An overview of the current economic state of the major regions in light of the recent credit crunch, as well as their outlook.
- Analysis of the impact that the global economic slowdown has had on the revenues of the top global logistics players.
- Analysis of the major trends that will drive the logistics industry, as well as the steps companies can take now to help improve future success.
Highlights of this title
The logistics industry is a dynamic and rapidly changing industry that is closely aligned with the global economic cycle due to its high correlation with trade. Due to the credit crunch, the global economy is on a knife-edge, with the US set for a potential recession and Europe struggling to juggle both interest rates and inflation successfully.
However, the slowdown has yet to filter through to logistics company revenues, as the top players in the market enjoyed a good year in 2007. Nevertheless, 2008 is set to be far tougher for those in the transportation sector.
Aside from the economy, which logistics players can do little about, several trends will have a significant impact on the logistics industry in the coming year. The key question though is what logistics companies can do now to help reap the rewards from these trends as well as improve their chances of surviving in the future.

- Gain an insight into the trends that are set to drive the logistics market in the coming years.
- Identify how your company can be proactive now in order to take full advantage of these trends in the future.
