FREE INDUSTRY REPORTS
eyefortransport has been
trying to find out how well 3PL providers really know their customers
...
... Respondents to a recent 3PL survey were asked what they think
are the key concerns cited by shippers when they assess outsourcing
to a 3PL provider. 77% believed the
key concern to be "loss of control".
Yet, according to the results of a 3PL users' survey, only
28% of shippers see this as a barrier to logistics outsourcing
and instead, it's "perceived service issues" and "perceived
higher costs" that dissuade more than 34%.
The surveys also highlighted
the retail sector for vertical industry growth potential, while
in terms of geographical expansions China (37%), North America (31%)
and India (24%) are considered top regions. Plus, 93% of the survey
respondents still see considerable growth opportunities in the provision
of technology and IT solutions. Find
out more trends in the new reports!
JUST RELEASED:

It gives 3PLs, their partners and their customers an insight into
where the market is heading and how to make the most of these trends.
