Warehousing & Storage in the UK - Market Research Report (2014-2029)

The success of warehousing and storage is driven by the performance of a handful of key markets, including online retailers, supermarkets and grocery stores. The total value of world trade also substantially affects the flow of goods through European warehouses, as does the market for road freight transport. A surge in e-commerce activity, accelerated by the COVID-19 outbreak, has heightened demand for warehousing across Europe, slashing vacancy rates and boosting throughflow. Warehouse providers have responded by investing in more value-added services, like picking robots and just-in-time inventory systems, to cater for more complex business needs.

仓储与物流业的繁荣得益于少数关键市场的卓越表现，这些市场包括在线零售商、超市及杂货店。全球贸易总额的显著变化亦对欧洲仓库中货物流动产生了深远影响，公路货运市场的变化亦然。受COVID-19疫情爆发推动的电子商务活动的激增，进一步提升了欧洲对仓储的需求，大幅降低了空置率，并促进了货物吞吐量的增长。仓库提供商为满足日益复杂的商业需求，已通过投资于增值服务，如拣选机器人和即时库存系统等，做出了积极响应。
