The global IoT-powered logistics market was valued at USD 42.3 billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 13.2% from 2024 to 2033. The market is expected to reach USD 146.1 billion by 2033. One of the main factors propelling the IoT in the logistics industry is its ability to increase the efficiency of logistics operations. The success of any logistics company is determined by the effective management of inventory and warehousing, internal business process automation, timely delivery of goods, safe storage, and quality of goods.

Market Introduction:

Through integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology, lot-powered logistics transforms the conventional supply chain model, improving visibility, efficiency, and decision-making. This cutting-edge method integrates smart sensors and devices into every facet of the logistics process, from warehouse infrastructure to vehicles. These networked devices gather data in real-time about the location, state, and status of assets and items along the supply chain in logistics powered by the Internet of Things. After being transferred and analysed in a centralised system, this data offers stakeholders priceless insights into the logistical processes. To ensure the integrity of perishable goods during transit, shipping containers are equipped with sensors that can monitor various environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. IoT significantly impacts logistics, providing advantages including better inventory management, optimised routes, and preventative maintenance for equipment and cars. The Internet of Things (IoT) holds great potential for logistics operators, corporate clients, and end-users. It benefits new business models, customer experience, safety and security, and operational efficiency. These benefits are offered at every stage of the logistics value chain, including last-mile delivery, freight transportation, and warehousing. These logistics industry components will affect the Internet of Things (IoT) in the upcoming decades.
