Global Digital Freight Forwarding Market – Overview

The expansion of international trade volumes is a significant contributor to the expansion of the freight forwarding market. International trade is the exchange of goods and services between countries. Global trade allows consumers and countries to be exposed to goods and services that are not available or are more expensive in their home countries. Freight forwarders coordinate intermodal transportation of goods on behalf of shippers, and increased trade volume will increase freight forwarding activity. For example, the World Trade Organization estimated the global merchandise trade volume growth of 10.8% in 2021. As a result, increase in international trade volumes is expected to fuel future growth in the freight forwarding market.

Global digital freight forwarding market has segments, such as Rail Freight, Road Freight, Ocean Freight, and Air Freight based on by mode; Warehouse Management and Transportation Management based on function; and Third-Party Logistics, Forwarders, Brokers, Shippers, and Carriers based on end user.

Global Digital Freight Forwarding Market – Technology Advancements

Artificial intelligence (AI) integration has emerged as a key trend gaining traction in the digital freight forwarding market. Through automation and real-time data, AI plays a key role in lowering costs, saving time, increasing productivity, and increasing accuracy. For example, in July 2019, Kuehne+Nagel, a Swiss logistics company, launched an AI-enabled freight forwarding platform eTrucknow.com for overland shipments in the Asia-Pacific region. Shippers can use eTrucknow to simplify the quote and comparison process. After the customer submits the shipment information, an AI-enabled engine optimizes and automates the quotation comparison process by validating various data points and presenting the customer with the most affordable quotation. Additionally, by connecting certified carriers with a network of shippers in need of road freight services via the marketplace platform, eTrucknow enables them to convert their unused space or unscheduled trips into potential revenue.

In May 2021, Kuehne+Nagel, a Switzerland-based transport, and logistics company acquired Apex International Corporation, a China-based logistics firm that specializes in freight forwarding, for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition Apex and Kuehne+Nagel are aiming to provide their customers with a compelling offering in the competitive Asian logistics industry, primarily in e-commerce fulfillment, hi-tech, and e-mobility.
