Introduction

As the manufacturing of products continues to shift eastwards, overland supply chains have become critical in maintaining an efficient flow between the point of production and the consumer. This report forecasts the outlook for road freight transportation across Europe and benchmarks countries using the unique Datamonitor market efficiency rating.

Scope

Profiles of the leading road freight service providers across Europe.

Report Highlights

The eastward expansion of the European Union has provided a major boost to trade between Western and Eastern Europe. The growth of the retail, automotive, pharmaceutical and electronics industries in Eastern Europe has led to increased consumption demand for goods and services, which, in turn, has fuelled the growth in road freight sector.

However, while there are significant opportunities for companies to exploit, there are also major hurdles to overcome in order to guarantee success. While companies in Western Europe are faced with increasing operating costs, the Eastern half of the continent is plagued by obsolete, insufficient and inefficient transport infrastructure.
