Poland's goal to double organic farming by 2030 is expected to increase demand for road freight services
- Poland is the fifth largest manufacturing country in the European Union. Moreover, Poland's automotive production is experiencing significant growth, which is positively impacting related industries. In August 2024, Polish plants produced 22,512 trucks, a 13.8% increase YoY and a 19.2% rise from July 2024. From January to August 2024, total production reached 225,047 vehicles, up by 27,319 units (13% YoY increase). The rise in automotive manufacturing is stimulating the need for components and materials and fueling the demand for road freight transport.
- Moreover, partnerships between top retail chains and logistics players are becoming common. For instance, JD Logistics and Biedronka (Poland's largest grocery chain) formed a partnership in December 2022 to enhance Biedronka's online order fulfillment and expand its e-commerce operations. JD Logistics tailored its 15,000 square meter warehouse in Poland specifically for Biedronka. This facility is designed to facilitate fast delivery of online orders, with the potential for fulfillment within 24 hours. Biedronka has been a prominent player in the Polish retail market for 27 years, with a network of 3,304 stores across more than 1,100 locations as of 2022.
- Polish agriculture has significant potential for growth, supported by modernization, which is required to enhance competitiveness. Moreover, the CAP Strategic Plan for 2023-2027 prioritizes economic, social, and environmental goals in Polish agriculture. The plan includes financial support for struggling sectors, notably livestock, and various crops, while focusing on small and medium-sized farms (up to 300 hectares). In addition, Poland aims to more than double the area dedicated to organic farming by 2030, which is expected to drive the demand for road freight services.
