Market size outlook for the Contract Logistics Market

The contract logistics market has expanded considerably in recent years, with its valuation projected to increase from $336.26 billion in 2024 to $367.98 billion in 2025, reflecting a 9.4% CAGR. This growth is rooted in several influential factors, including tighter global trade and production networks, the growing tendency of organizations to outsource non-core logistics tasks, heightened consumer expectations for product variety and rapid delivery, the continued rise of international retail and e-commerce ecosystems, increased warehousing and cross-border transportation activities, and the widespread push for cost-efficient, streamlined supply chain operations.

Forecast valuation for the Contract Logistics Market by 2029

The market is anticipated to continue expanding, reaching $521.11 billion by 2029, supported by a 9.1% CAGR. This trajectory is supported by rising demand for sustainable logistics solutions, the need for flexible and scalable logistics infrastructures, expanding fulfillment requirements in retail and e-commerce, broader collaboration across industries to deliver integrated logistics offerings, increasing emphasis on high-value services such as packaging and warehousing, and a stronger focus on supply chain resilience and risk mitigation. Emerging trends influencing the forecast period include advancements in real-time supply chain visibility tools, growing automation and robotics in warehousing, data-driven logistics forecasting, the maturation of digital freight management systems, new developments in eco-friendly packaging, and continued innovation in performance optimization technologies.

Drivers fueling growth in the Contract Logistics Market

A key driver propelling the expansion of the contract logistics sector is the increasing demand for warehousing and distribution services. These operations encompass essential tasks such as storing, managing, and moving goods along the supply chain, from manufacturers to end customers. A key catalyst is the rapid growth of e-commerce, which requires large-scale storage capacity, precise inventory control, and equipped last-mile delivery networks to meet online fulfillment needs.

Warehousing demand accelerating Contract Logistics Market momentum

Contract logistics providers enhance warehousing and distribution performance by optimizing inventory flow, implementing efficient storage systems, and improving delivery coordination-ultimately reducing operational burdens for businesses. Supporting this trend, the U.S. Census Bureau reported in February 2024 that retail e-commerce sales in the U.S. reached $1,118.7 billion in 2023, marking a 7.6% increase from 2022. This surge in online transactions underscores the growing reliance on warehousing and distribution capabilities, reinforcing their role as a primary driver of market expansion.

These platforms unify systems involved in managing storage, processing customer orders, and coordinating support functions, enabling capabilities such as real-time inventory tracking, automated order routing, and data-driven process optimization.

Example innovations shaping the Contract Logistics Market

An example of this shift occurred in June 2025, when GXO Logistics Inc. introduced its Enhanced GXO Direct solution-a digitally connected fulfillment platform designed to deliver scalable logistics support for mid-sized enterprises. The system offers real-time order tracking, seamless integration between sales channels and inventory hubs, and automated workflows that improve flexibility, reduce setup times, and optimize operational efficiency across shared warehouse environments.
