Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The growing e-commerce sector is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the growing global rail logistics market may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the airfreight forwarding industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Market Driver
The growing e-commerce sector is notably driving the global market growth. The growing Internet penetration and improving purchasing power parity across all the regions are primarily bolstering the development of the global e-commerce market. The US and China are the key contributing countries to the global e-commerce market. For instance, in 2018, the business-to-customer (B2C) e-commerce industry in the US accounted for more than 10% of the overall retail sales in the US. Furthermore, the US e-commerce market is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period. The augmented online sales are expected to positively influence the volume of global airfreight during the forecast period.
Key Market Trend
Increasing US agricultural export to China is the key market trend driving global market growth. The US exports of agricultural products to China recovered in 2016 after a fall in 2015. In 2020, agricultural products from the US worth about $26.5 billion were exported to China. The products included meat, cut flowers, seafood, and others. In 2017, China reduced the value-added tax on primary agricultural products to 11% from 13%. The tax reduction is further expected to enhance the imports of agricultural products in China. This, in turn, is expected to increase the demand for airfreight forwarding service because quick delivery is required to prevent the spoilage of agricultural products.
Key Market Challenge
The growing global rail logistics market is the major challenge impeding the global market growth. The global rail logistics market is expected to register moderate growth during the forecast period. The growing rail infrastructure and low transportation costs are the main factors triggering the growth of the market. The freight volumes, especially that of the dry cargo, are exhibiting an upward trend since 2009. For instance, in 2018, about 19% of cereal grains transported within the US were through intermodal rail. In Europe, the demand for rail logistics services is from pharmaceutical and electronic component manufacturers. The rise in rail freight volumes is primarily because of its lower operating cost compared with sea freight and air freight. The growth of rail logistics operations is expected to be a threat to the vendors of the global market during the forecast period.
