Transport Continues to Represent the Highest Costs for Logistics Firms

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/22/2021 -- Transportation costs remain the most significant part of logistics budgets for many companies today. According to industry specialists, the cost of transport makes up around 58% of average corporate logistics costs. As the past year has seen a huge rise in the need for local delivery services (eCommerce purchases made up 14% of all sales last year) this is putting even more strain on this part of the budget. However, despite the fact that many businesses are already struggling to juggle the costs of logistics, consumers continue to pile on the pressure when it comes to more innovative - and faster - options to get what they need. Logistics planners now face the job of focusing on the key questions to help ensure businesses are able to continue to deliver for consumers, such as whether a company is going to insource or outsource transportation management. There are also many different factors that can affect transportation costs and which need to be taken into account, from rate negotiation to transport mode selection.
