In 2023, Poland led the European road freight volume for grain, unmanufactured tobacco, seeds, and animal feeds, with significant positive growth of 8.02%. Conversely, Spain and France saw declines of -3.62% and -15.24%, respectively. Norway experienced notable growth at 14.87%, suggesting expanding activity in the sector. Most other countries showed negative trends or modest changes, with Luxembourg notably ceasing operations at -100%. These variations depict a shifting landscape, influenced by regional agricultural production and demand.
Future trends to watch include Poland's continued dominance and potential growth in Eastern European markets like Romania, which had positive momentum. Conversely, Western European markets, particularly France and Spain, may stabilize or slightly decline further. Increasing efficiency and sustainability measures in transport logistics will also shape future dynamics.
