Expansion of E-commerce and Last-Mile Delivery Services
The boom in e-commerce has revolutionized the logistics sector in Italy at its very core, giving rise to the ever-growing demand for effective last-mile delivery. Greater demand from consumers for online shopping necessitates efficient and fast delivery systems, which compel logistics companies to adjust. The online market is projected to generate $72.90 billion in revenue by 2025. With an estimated CAGR of 8.46% from 2025 to 2029, it is expected to reach $100.88 billion by 2029. To address the increasing demand, heavy investments are being pumped into last-mile delivery infrastructure. In Q2 2023, Italy saw €258 million invested in logistics, with much of the investment going towards improving last-mile abilities. This concentration is intended to minimize delivery time and enhance the quality of services in cities. Besides this, firms are now embracing cutting-edge technologies to maximize last-mile delivery. For example, in December 2024, Amazon made its inaugural drone delivery in Italy, which was a huge breakthrough in autonomous delivery solutions. These innovations will be able to simplify operations and lower costs in the logistics industry.
Infrastructure Development and Modernization
Italy's geographical position as a crossing between Europe, Asia, and Africa requires an advanced and solid logistics infrastructure. Sensing this need, the government of Italy has initiated huge infrastructural development work to raise the efficiency and capabilities of its logistics system. With the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), Italy has pledged USD 8.9 billion through 2026 to modernize the ports and infrastructure. This investment is meant to enhance maritime logistics capacity, ensuring easier international trade and making Italy a focal logistics hub in the Mediterranean area. Some notable projects are the USD 115.28 million development of the Port of Ancona, which began in December 2023. This project has a 3.3 km transport link with two tunnels and a viaduct that enhances the link between maritime and land transport. Moreover, there are plans to demarcate high-speed and conventional rail tracks in cities by 2028 to decrease congestion and improve freight efficiency. These infrastructure upgrades are anticipated to support the growth of the logistics market. In addition, better infrastructure will allow for quicker and more efficient transportation, drawing more investment and promoting economic growth.
