South Africa Logistics Market
Overview and Size

South
Africa Logistics Market has witnessed positive growth over the past few years
owing to the rising demand from the FMCG, Retail, Automotive industries and
E-commerce orders. The increase in the export and import value of goods have
also driven the freight forwarding, warehousing and value added services
segment in South Africa.

South Africa Logistics Market
Segmentation

By Freight Forwarding

The FMCG, Retail and
Automotive industries in the country played a significant role, especially for
the domestic market, in the growth of freight forwarding market in South
Africa. Road freight was observed to be the most preferred mode of
transportation due to the development in the road infrastructure and relatively
cheaper prices as compared to the other modes of transportation; followed by rail
and sea freight. Asia flow corridor was observed as the largest contributor in
terms of revenue in South Africa freight forwarding market.

By Warehousing

The South
Africa Warehousing market has grown at a slow pace due to the stalling economy.
Warehousing is one of the key developmental areas for logistics, requiring
increased investment and advancement in technology. The advent of automation
technology along with more advanced inventory management systems has helped in
the growth of the warehousing segment.

By Cold Chain

South
Africa Cold Chain market has expanded majorly due to rise in the demand for
perishables. Better access to secure payment gateway along with the gradual
improvement in the delivery system have further led to the expansion of the cold
chain segment. The
demand for poultry and fishery based products has contributed the growth. Majority of the
revenue in the cold chain is yielded from the cold transportation rather than cold
storage.

By Express Logistics Market

The
Express Logistics market grew at positive revenue CAGR during 2013-2018. Online
customers are now demanding more convenient methods of delivering their parcels
as well as more efficient methods of returns. Majority of the customers prefer normal
delivery to express delivery as express service is seen as a premium service.
In spite of the challenge, the market has attracted many international players
such as DHL, DSV, FedEx- TNT among others. The express delivery market will
grow in the future at strong pace due to the demand for faster delivery
services and advent of advanced technologies.

By E Commerce Logistics Market

E-Commerce is showing stable progress in the South African
retail industry, especially in distant areas where traditional distribution
channels are too expensive.  Traditional
retailers have shifted to a web-presence to compete with mail-order companies
and many outsource delivery to a service provider. Strong investments in online
retail, logistics capability, aggressive marketing and the rapid uptake of new
shopping channels like mobile shopping and Instagram have been driving the
gross merchandize value online. South Africa’s E-commerce logistics market is
poised for strong growth in the coming years.

By Outsourced Logistics Market

The
companies have now started to focus more on their core, driving the outsourced
logistics or 3PL industry. The growth in the 3PL Market has been fueled by companies
looking to subcontract logistics in specialist areas where they have less
expertise and the robust growth of e-commerce, which is demanding faster
delivery and efficient inventory management. Strong relationship between
shippers and 3PL providers, and the significance of emerging technologies,
including block chain and automation have allowed the third party logistics
market to flourish in the country.

Competitive Landscape

The
competition within South Africa Logistics and Warehousing Market is highly
fragmented in nature with the presence of national and international players
such as Imperial Logistics, Bidvest Panalpina Logistics, Value Logistics, DB
Schenker, Barloworld Logistics, CEVA, DHL, ID Logistics, OneLogix, Kuehne +
Nagel, and many more.

Future Outlook and Projections

Development
in infrastructure and use of technology will drive growth in the logistics
market. Anticipated surge in domestic and cross border online mail orders will
raise the demand for the freight forwarding of the goods from one place to
another in both domestic and international markets. Expansion of ports will
raise the imports and exports for which the need for establishing warehouses
will rise. With further growth in the E-Commerce market and changes in consumer
preferences, the demand for a quicker and affordable delivery service will
witness growth. Growth in the international trade, especially with the growing
Asian countries such as China, India and Japan will lead to growth in the
market.
