Pharmaceutical 3PL Market Analysis
The biopharmaceutical 3PL market is expected to register a CAGR of more than 7%. The rising trend of outsourcing logistics, the focus of pharmaceutical players on their distribution networks due to their strong sales numbers, and the rise in the number of biosimilar launches are some of the key factors driving the market.
The COVID-19 outbreak also had a major impact on global logistics in part due to reduced air freight capacity and reduced workforce at airports, ports, and warehouses. Small players in the biopharmaceutical third-party logistics market were hit severely as they usually do not have any recovery, backup, or intermittent operation plan.
Technological advancements are also one of the key factors driving the adoption of temperature management logistic services. Technologies such as warehouse robotics, mobile cloud solutions, data mining, and real-time monitoring have changed the overall logistics industry to a great extent. According to a global survey carried out in July 2021, cold chain services are important to third-party logistics providers (3PLs). More than 62% of 3PL service providers believe cold chain services are critically important for the future growth of their business.
