Market Share of France 3PL Industry
The market is relatively fragmented with a large number of local and international players, including DB Schenker, GEFCO, Schneider, Groupe CAT and Bollore Logistics as some of its major players.
Among recent developments, Groupe CAT inaugurated its new headquarters in Suresnes, close to Paris. The group thus brings together in a single place all employees currently spread between Boulogne and Levallois, ensuring flawless logistics activities running uninterrupted, not only for its manufacturing customers but also for the players in the automotive industry in France, Europe and around the world.
Companies are also focusing on the development of the dedicated logistics and warehousing services like in October 2019, UPS announced upgraded its healthcare-dedicated warehouse and distribution network that includes adding 1.3 million sq. feet of total distribution space in key U.S. markets and received European Union's Good Distribution Practice (GDP) compliance certification for its healthcare operations in France and Germany validating its networks as following proper standards for shipping pharmaceuticals, diagnostic products (including reagents), and stable blood products.
Exxe Group, in September 2019, acquired the France-based agricultural transport company DIONI Logistics Agri-Transport Services. With the extensive logistics facilities, DIONI offers a range of agricultural transportation services through a large fleet, including owned, leased, financed and managed in partnership of about 80 transport vehicles for the transportation of bulk grains. The company intends to double the number of trucks in 2020, as well as establish new first-class warehouses for the storage and the processing of wheat and other grains.
