- Enterprises should innovate in cleaner technologies and automation, leveraging €1.2 billion allocated by the French government for green initiatives.
Retail Boom Driving Demand for Logistics Services
- E-commerce in France is projected to hit €112 billion by 2024, fueling need for robust logistics networks. Over 80% of customers now expect rapid delivery services.
- Logistics companies should invest in last-mile delivery solutions, digital transformation, and automated warehouses to capitalize on this growth. Digital efficiency is key.
Substantial Investment in Infrastructure Development
- France is investing €14 billion into modernizing its logistics infrastructure by 2025, including new highway and rail networks.
