    Description

    Global courier and delivery service companies typically come in two varieties: large, international and small, localized providers. Both types of companies are affected by similar economic indicators. Over the past five years, conditions primarily benefited delivery companies, as consumers and businesses increased delivery and courier use amid the pandemic and social-distancing mandates. The climb in e-commerce boosted the need for local and global courier services, benefiting the industry even in suboptimal, post-pandemic conditions. Over the past five years, revenue has been climbing at a CAGR of 1.2% and is estimated to reach $418.8 billion in 2024, when revenue will expand 2.9%. Despite strong revenue growth, several factors have deteriorated profit, forcing some players out of the field. Although sales surged during the pandemic, operating conditions worsened globally as companies contended with pandemic-era regulations and disruptions. Oil prices experienced substantial volatility, ultimately rising, which cut into returns. In the pandemic's wake, parcel volume sank swiftly, and many offered higher salaries to entice workers back, driving up wage costs. Though revenue will reverse course in 2024 and expand, profit will sink further as even the largest global courier businesses struggle to right the ship. Over the next five years, large couriers will expand their market share through acquisitions and global trade strategies. By leveraging their financial strength, they will acquire smaller businesses in developing markets, extending their networks and outpacing competitors in emerging economies. As global trade activity rises and offshoring operations become more prevalent, demand for established, reliable delivery services will amplify. Although geopolitical tensions may present challenges, major couriers' robust infrastructures and adaptability will support sustained market expansion. Revenue will climb at a CAGR of 2.8% over the next five years, reaching $418.8 billion in 2029.

    Description

    The courier and local delivery services industry has navigated steady growth over the past five years, buoyed by resilient consumer demand, e-commerce expansion, ongoing investment in operational efficiency and digital transformation. Profit has remained robust, with profit as a revenue share rising from 7.9% in 2020 to 8.1% in 2025 as firms prioritized margin optimization, chiefly via automation, high-value services in the business-to-business (B2B) segment and improved route efficiency. From 2020 to 2025, industry revenue rose at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2%, reaching $191.0 billion, with 2025 posting a growth rate of 2.7%. However, late-period performance has faced headwinds from rising fuel and labor costs, shifting consumer demand and broader macroeconomic pressures that have tempered the shipment growth of previous years. Intensifying competition in last-mile delivery, particularly from e-commerce retailers like Walmart and Amazon, places pressure on industry revenue because they develop in-house delivery networks and use nonemployers. In response, major players in the industry have initiated consolidation efforts, which have significantly altered the competitive landscape. These efforts, coupled with increasing automation and a shift in focus toward B2B shipment and specialized, value-added services like expedited delivery and supply chain management for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), have helped the industry adapt to the changing market dynamics. Yet, structural cost pressures, such as wage inflation and compliance spending, have kept overall profit in check. Tariff increases and international trade uncertainties in 2025 have introduced additional volatility, driving up costs for goods in transit and causing some retailers and manufacturers to restructure supply chains, with knock-on effects on shipment volumes and revenue predictability. The industry is shifting toward service diversification, digital capability upgrades and targeted growth in higher-profit business segments. With e-commerce and direct-to-consumer shipping still expected to grow, leading couriers are investing in AI, analytics and fleet modernization to gain further efficiency and adaptability, even as they brace for operational disruptions from ongoing tariff changes and market uncertainty. One significant aspect of this shift is the transition to electric vehicles, which is promising for sustainability, cost savings and the environment. However, the pace of this transition will depend on regulatory support and infrastructure buildout. Profit as a share of revenue will rise from 8.1% in 2025 to 8.2% in 2030 as companies weather market challenges and drive continued innovation. Overall, the sector is projected to maintain forward momentum, with revenue expected to rise at a 3.0% CAGR over the next five years, reaching $221.4 billion by 2030.

Description

Global courier and delivery service companies typically come in two varieties: large, international and small, localized providers. Both types of companies are affected by similar economic indicators. Over the past five years, conditions primarily benefited delivery companies, as consumers and businesses increased delivery and courier use amid the pandemic and social-distancing mandates. The climb in e-commerce boosted the need for local and global courier services, benefiting the industry even in suboptimal, post-pandemic conditions. Over the past five years, revenue has been climbing at a CAGR of 1.2% and is estimated to reach $418.8 billion in 2024, when revenue will expand 2.9%. Despite strong revenue growth, several factors have deteriorated profit, forcing some players out of the field. Although sales surged during the pandemic, operating conditions worsened globally as companies contended with pandemic-era regulations and disruptions. Oil prices experienced substantial volatility, ultimately rising, which cut into returns. In the pandemic's wake, parcel volume sank swiftly, and many offered higher salaries to entice workers back, driving up wage costs. Though revenue will reverse course in 2024 and expand, profit will sink further as even the largest global courier businesses struggle to right the ship. Over the next five years, large couriers will expand their market share through acquisitions and global trade strategies. By leveraging their financial strength, they will acquire smaller businesses in developing markets, extending their networks and outpacing competitors in emerging economies. As global trade activity rises and offshoring operations become more prevalent, demand for established, reliable delivery services will amplify. Although geopolitical tensions may present challenges, major couriers' robust infrastructures and adaptability will support sustained market expansion. Revenue will climb at a CAGR of 2.8% over the next five years, reaching $418.8 billion in 2029.
