The findings of the report underscore the evolving nature of the logistics sector and the need for continuous adaptation to meet changing customer expectations and market dynamics. By prioritising cost-efficiency and speed, logistics companies can stay ahead of the curve and drive growth in an increasingly competitive environment.
