Today’s freight landscape

The freight sector is in a state of flux after the inflationary pressure of recent years and its impact on revenues. Shippers are working hard to prioritise efficiency, and this report looks at solutions to which decision-makers are turning to guarantee customer satisfaction right now.

The freight sector across Europe

Climate change is turning up the heat on the logistics industry. Decarbonisation of the supply chain is a key ambition in 2024, but freight shippers are still having to balance the costs of doing business with new regulations and the legacy of labour shortages and cross-border frictions.

The road to 2030

Several key technologies will be the key to how freight evolves over the next decade. As trade becomes more digitised, the sector is focused on integrating these solutions to streamline logistics. The more the sector is supported in this, the better it can lay the foundation for meeting the challenges of tomorrow.
