When managed effectively &amp; efficiently for a company, it can play wonders as a strategic component for transportation business growth. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Companies are willing to explore and pay additional fees for certain value-added services. For an emerging economy, this could mean on-time, safe &amp; secure delivery while, on the other hand, for the mature developed market, it could be network transport optimization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In either case, the evolution of transport is market dependent, meaning; its face-value differs based on market and geographic region. The expectations are doubled when it is merged with technology-based industry solutions such as using IoT, Big Data, AI, Autonomous Vehicles, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The digital transformation in the transportation industry has pushed the capability to deliver greater visibility, streamlined reporting, real-time issue resolution, optimization, last-mile solutions, and more.

Furthermore, it is growing steadily over the past five years. And has accounted for 75% of the total freight revenue generated. Let\u2019s see a brief about each sub-sector of the transport and logistics sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"trucking-industry-growth\"><strong>Trucking Industry<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <strong>Growth<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Trucking has always been the backbone and has digested the maximum share of the country\u2019s freight.

This makes it more capital, labor, and technology-oriented area of transport and logistics. The air cargo industry is seeming to stop at nowhere with an incredible 110% rise since 1980.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Rail<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The railroad industry is in the midst of some high transition phase. It provides significant awareness opportunities that intermodal containers provide to the transportation industry. The intermodal traffic makes up about 28% of total rail car loadings.
