Methodology and sourcing behind the figures shown above.
Truckload and LTL transportation
Estimate based on aggregated search results: US truckload market ~USD 800 billion (Red Stag) plus US LTL market ~USD 118.68 billion (Mordor Intelligence 2026 figure) → combined ~USD 918.7 billion. Growth potential (CAGR ~2.3%) is a weighted blend: Mordor’s LTL forecast 4.08% CAGR (2026–2031) and an assumed low-single-digit truckload growth (~2%) reflecting mature market dynamics and rate-driven expansion; weighted by market size to produce a combined CAGR ≈2.3%. IBISWorld and other sources report alternative LTL figures (USD 96.9B–USD 114B) and similar low-to-mid single-digit growth, supporting the mid-to-low single-digit combined outlook.
Intermodal and rail freight
Estimated North American intermodal + related rail freight market (~$85B) derived from: global rail freight market estimates (Mordor: ~$340.5B 2026; FactMR: ~$370B 2025) scaled to North America using intermodal regional shares and intermodal market sizing (Persistence: global intermodal $52.4B in 2025; North America ~36%). Oliver Wyman analysis of US addressable intermodal volumes and a cited $1.7B medium‑haul revenue opportunity indicate additional upside within North America. Taken together, this implies a North American addressable market on the order of multiple tens of billions (intermodal + drayage/last‑mile services and intermodal share of rail freight). Growth potential (CAGR ~6.5%) blends higher intermodal forecasts (Persistence 7.2% intermodal CAGR) and broader rail freight growth (Mordor/FactMR ~4.5% CAGR), reflecting faster expansion of intermodal and drayage segments versus overall rail freight.
- The global intermodal transport market size is likely to value at US$ 52.4 billion in 2025
- North America dominates the intermodal transport market, accounting for 36%
- Market Size (2026)USD 340.5 Billion; Growth Rate (2026 - 2031)4.48% CAGR
- Base Value(2025): 370 Bn; CAGR (2026 - 2036): 4.5%
- Nearly 31 million truckloads move today in lanes under 1,500 miles that could potentially be shifted to single-line rail intermodal; could add an estimated $1.7 billion in annual revenue
Expedited air cargo
Estimated expedited (time‑critical/express/charter) air cargo market by applying reported express/expedited share (~38%) to published global air cargo/air freight market values (reports range ~USD 160–185B in mid‑2020s). Growth potential (CAGR ~5.5%) is based on reported air freight CAGRs (4.3–5.85%) with express/expedited services typically growing at or modestly above the overall market due to e‑commerce and time‑sensitive demand.
- The global air cargo market size was valued at USD 185.3 billion in 2023; projected CAGR 4.3% (2024–2032).
- The global air freight market is expected to grow from USD 389.55 billion in 2026 to USD 642.20 billion by 2035; CAGR 5.80%.
- By service type, the express freight segment contributed the highest market share of 38% in 2025.
- Air Freight Market size was valued at USD 160.17 billion in 2025 and to reach USD 225.26 billion by 2031; CAGR 5.85% (2026-2031).
Freight marketplace and carrier network
Estimates derived from recent industry reports for digital freight matching / digital freight brokerage (comparable to freight marketplaces and carrier networks). Reported 2024–2025 market values range from about USD 3.8–4.9 billion and multi-year forecasts vary (CAGRs reported from ~5.8% to ~20.2%). I selected a mid-point current market size (~USD 4.0B) and a conservative-to-ambitious growth potential (≈15% CAGR) to reflect the consensus range across sources and the category’s strong network effects and technology adoption tailwinds.
Supply chain orchestration and fulfillment connectivity
Primary estimate uses Mordor Intelligence’s supply chain control tower market as a close proxy for supply chain orchestration and fulfillment connectivity (USD 11.57B in 2026; 17.36% CAGR through 2031). Fortune Business Insights’ broader supply chain management market (USD 29.34B in 2025; ~10.4% CAGR) was used to contextualize the larger market envelope and validate that orchestration is a high-growth subset.
