Logistics is the backbone of any economy, and amid rapid changes in technology, evolving customer demands, and new business models, the logistics industry needs to stay nimble in order to support the way the world lives and works.
Change is happening fast, so it’s imperative for logistics leaders to be a step ahead of the trends shaping global commerce, such as an increase in global trade in developing economies and a rise in trade agreements. In late 2021 alone, over 500,000 new jobs were added to the logistics sector, spanning from warehousing and storage roles to messenger and transportation roles.
As long as businesses continue to create products and consumers keep buying them, the need for logisticians, warehouse workers, and couriers will remain strong.
