Transport Services Industry Overview

Smart deployment of technology in the transportation services market opens new opportunities for the market’s growth
Transportation services companies depend highly on the health of the global economy because of fixed costs in the industry. Therefore, the profitability of companies involved in the transportation services industry depends on efficient operations and on favorable fuel and labor costs. While large companies enjoy economies of scale in the ability to provide more extensive services, small companies can compete only by serving local or regional areas.
The transportation services market consists of sales of transportation services and warehousing and storage facilities by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that move people or goods from one place to another for an amount or fee and/or provide warehousing and storage facilities to store goods. Transportation services include air, rail, road, water and pipeline transportation of both goods and people.
