#6 In EuropeThe 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.
