General Warehousing and Storage Market Drivers – Analyst’s Observation

According to the analysts at KD Market Insights, some key growth drivers for the global general warehousing and storage market are:

• Increasing preference for omnichannel retailing: Omnichannel retailing is defined as the shopping experiences where customer can enjoy the store’s experience both in online and offline format. With the growing penetration of smartphones and rise in preferences of consumers for online and virtual shopping experiences from the ease of their homes, retailers are increasingly focusing on setting up their online presence and are raising their store inventory in warehouses to support the online orders. Such a factor is therefore expected to drive the demand for warehouse spaces.
• Rising urbanization trend: The market growth of general warehousing and storage can also be attributed to the surge in trend of urbanization around the globe. As people move to cities, the space available for businesses to operate their processes and to store their inventory is very less, which in turn, raises the need for warehouse and storage spaces. Such a factor is therefore expected to contribute to the growth of the global general warehousing and storage market.

Which Probable Factors Could Hamper the Growing General Warehousing and Storage Market Trend?

As per our KD Market Insights analysis, some of the challenges expected to limit the global market growth of general warehousing and storage are:
