Event Logistics Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growth of Events Industry

The events industry is one of the largest and most diverse sectors worldwide. Large events such as festivals, concerts and exhibitions to smaller events such as personal parties and seminars are categorized under the extremely broad spectrum of this industry. The events industry continues to thrive every year, growing successfully and impacting the lives and businesses of many people across the globe. The corporate events and trade fairs/shows segment recorded more than US$ 1 trillion in terms of revenue in 2022. With the rising number of events such as corporate, cultural, sports, media & entertainment, among others, there is an increase in demand for the design and development of sufficient event logistics infrastructure across the globe. Thus, the growth of the events industry drives the event logistics market.

Increasing Adoption of Sustainable Solutions

The need for proper transport and logistics services has been rising owing to population growth worldwide. Many countries are shifting to green logistics and services to reduce the environmental impacts of conventional logistics. Sustainable and environment-friendly logistics services highlight lowering emissions by utilizing clean energy sources, such as wind and solar, to power fleet vehicles. As the world is already facing high air pollution levels, especially in major countries such as the US, Canada, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Germany, France, China, and India, this sustainable approach is significantly beneficial. By shifting to green transport and logistics for efficient event management, companies are anticipated to take various measures to reduce these emissions. Many large and medium-sized organizations are opting for initiatives to optimize their business processes to reduce carbon footprints. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the transportation and logistics sectors are among the major contributors to carbon emissions and accounted for ~29% of the total GHG emissions in 2022. Several event logistics companies across the globe are involved in green logistics practices. Many event logistics firms are supporting shippers to enhance mobility by suggesting environmentally friendly modes of transportation. In 2023, the event logistics arm of DHL Group—DHL Supply Chain's Green Transport Policy—became a part of the company's investment in decarbonized transport solutions and introduced the Green Transport Policy.
