According to a report published by Grand View Research, Inc.; the third-party logistics (3PL) market is likely to reach a valuation of around USD 1.24 trillion by 2025. Increasing demand for outsourced-logistics functions, especially in middle market companies (retailers and wholesalers), to overcome logistics challenges can propel the market over the forecast period (from 2014 to 2025). The market for outsourced-logistics services is evolving toward cloud-based technologies and advanced services. The advent of Big Data and availability of market-specific logistic services are likely to be the major factors driving the demand for 3PL.
Major companies are implementing cloud-based Customer Relationship Management (CRM) applications to improve the shipper-vendor relationship and to decrease the supply chain complexities by making the process more transparent. Increasing automation in logistics services would also drive the market development as the implantation of automatic systems enable better logistics performance, efficiency, and error reduction. In addition, rising popularity of IoT-based services are projected to offer new growth opportunities for the 3PL market over the next few years.
