Global Freight Forwarding 2005
Freight forwarding: a sector in transformation The freight forwarding market is highly fragmented with low barriers to market entry and exit. This has historically allowed very small enterprises to enter the market and compete effectively with the major players, depressing margins. However this situation is changing as a small number of companies have achieved product differentiation through worldwide freight networks, underpinned by global technology. The forwarding sector has also been helped by a surge in international trade volumes, driven by the economies in the Asia Pacific region, especially China . This is increasingly changing the way in which this sector is perceived.
