In 2023, the UK road freight volume for agriculture, hunting, forestry, fish, and fishing products stood slightly above 93 million metric tons. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a consistent year-on-year decline between 0.9% and 1.0%. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is negative, reflecting a decrease in market volume. This trend suggests a gradual reduction in demand or a shift in transportation practices within the sector.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of environmental policies on logistics, technological advancements in supply chain operations, and shifts in consumer demand related to sustainable sourcing. These factors could further influence the volume and dynamics of road freight in the sector.
