In 2023, the actual volume of loaded international cabotage road transport in Germany stood at 743 thousand metric tons. The forecast for 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decline year-on-year from 705 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 554 thousand metric tons in 2028. Specifically, from 2024 to 2025, a decrease of 5.38% is expected, followed by similar reductions of around 5.70% yearly until 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is anticipated to reflect a negative trend as the market shrinks.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential policy changes impacting transport regulations and environmental standards.
- Technological advancements in transportation efficiency and logistics.
- Shifts in demand driven by changes in import/export dynamics across Europe.
