4PL market in Europe – Market dynamics
Key trends – The increase in retail sales is a key trend in the market. The increasing retail sales in Europe will influence the demand for logistics services during the forecast period. The use of logistics services improves supply chain efficiency by reducing costs and lowering lead times. Several companies are expanding their geographic footprints, product portfolios, and manufacturing capabilities. This requires multiple logistics requirements, such as sourcing raw materials, transporting and storing finished goods, and tracking shipments, which increases the need to expand retail technology and supply chain capabilities. Therefore, expanding supply chain capacity will increase the demand for 4PL during the forecast period.
Major challenges – The high operational costs and competitive pricing among vendors can impede the growth of the market. Companies are seeking value-added services and professional supply chain solutions, with the increasing demand for 4PL services such as transportation, warehousing, and distribution. This has increased price-based competition among 4PL service providers in Europe. The market requires capital-intensive infrastructure such as vehicles and containers at port stops, warehouses with specialized technology, and a skilled workforce. Moreover, 4PL service providers need to control operating costs to compete in the market. Such factors are expected to hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period.
