FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
The
Business of Warehousing in North America
–
2012 Market Size, Major 3PLs, Benchmarking Costs, Prices and Practices
Report is Released
STOUGHTON, WI, January 31, 2012 – In the
second half of 2011, Armstrong & Associates collected information on
contracting warehousing companies whose total revenues exceed $13 billion.
The average revenue for the sample companies was $823 million. Revenues
ranged from $36 million to $3 billion. Companies reported organic increases
from 1% to 25% for the first half of 2011 when compared to the first half of
2010.
In addition to a survey form, participants
completed a series of spreadsheets providing detailed information on
contract warehouses, contract customers and public warehouses. Information
covered over 600 contract warehouses, 300 contract customers and 100 public
warehouses.
Commodities handled were split into 13
vertical industries. The largest was Retail & Consumer Products at 18.4%.
High-tech/Computers accounted for 16.1% while Beverages & Food was 16.0%.
Building Materials came in at 1.7% reflecting the slowness of home
construction activity in the United States.
Modern value-added warehousing and
distribution (VAWD) third-party logistics providers (3PLs) all have
significant transportation management capabilities. The participants
commonly have network transportation management
and dedicated contract carriage (DCC) trucking operations.
Three-fourths of our respondents have asset trucking operations including
DCC. All have network transportation management
capabilities with over half having control centers operating with
major transportation management systems (TMS) platforms. Participants use
74% of their total warehouse space for contract warehousing and 26% for
public warehousing.
