Transportation Segment to Lead in Terms of Revenue Given its Pivotal Role in Delivery Process
TMR finds that in 2015, the transportation segment was larger than the warehousing segment of the global e-commerce logistics market by service type. This is explained by the fact that transportation is important all through the e-commerce logistics process and will gain even more importance as all large and small companies target last-mile delivery.
The transportation segment has been split further into air/express delivery, trucking/over road, freight/rail, and maritime. Of these, the trucking and over road segment accounts for the larger share because it is the most prevalent transportation method. The preference for trucking and over road transportation is further elevated with the logistical difficulties and costs associated with rail and air transport.
