Methodology and sourcing behind the figures shown above.
Dedicated Contract Carriage
Armstrong & Associates reports U.S. Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC) gross revenue of $32.0B in 2025 and notes the U.S. 3PL market grew 5.0% year-over-year to $323.4B. Using those primary figures, and considering DCC’s asset-based, domestic-transport focus, the near-term growth potential is estimated to align with the U.S. 3PL sector (~5% CAGR). Global 3PL reports (9–10% CAGR) indicate stronger growth in digital, warehousing and APAC-driven segments, suggesting modest upside but supporting the baseline U.S. DCC estimate.
Transportation management and brokerage
Primary estimate based on Mordor Intelligence’s freight brokerage market figures (USD 88.96B in 2026) and its 6.90% CAGR (2026–2031). ReAnIn (61.68B in 2025; projected to ~95.22B by 2032, CAGR ~6.4%) corroborates a mid-single-digit CAGR and similar multi‑year market scale for brokerage/managed-transportation services.
Contract warehousing and fulfillment
Primary estimate based on GrowthMarketReports’ contract warehousing figure (USD 325.4B in 2024) and its 7.2% CAGR projection (2025–2033). Cross-checked with broader contract logistics and warehousing reports: MarketsandData (global contract logistics, 7.5% CAGR), TrendX (global warehousing, 5.6% CAGR), Mordor (U.S. contract logistics, lower CAGR ~3.8%), and MRFR (warehousing & distribution; 8.0% CAGR). These sources indicate global contract warehousing and fulfillment sits in the low-to-mid hundreds of billions and growth potential around mid-single-digit to high-single-digit CAGR; 7.2% reflects the contract-warehousing-specific projection.
- global contract warehousing market size reached USD 325.4 billion in 2024
- growing from USD 275.63 billion in 2023 to USD 491.58 billion in 2031 (CAGR 7.50%)
- Warehousing Market projected from USD 418.51 Bn in 2025 to USD 683.41 Bn by 2034, CAGR 5.60%
- The United States contract logistics market size was valued at USD 62.37 billion in 2025 (CAGR 3.80%)
- Warehousing and Distribution Logistics Market was estimated at 14.26 USD Billion in 2024; CAGR 8.0% (2025-2035)
Customs compliance and trade facilitation
Primary source: Market Research Future report in the provided search results estimates the Customs and Trade Compliance Services market at $10.5B in 2024 with a projected CAGR of 4.92% (2025–2035). Other results did not contain explicit market-size/CAGR figures.
Fleet and heavy equipment remarketing
Estimate based on Mordor Intelligence’s used construction equipment market (2026 value USD 132.67B) and the reported dealers/brokers remarketing channel share (53.78% in 2025). Applying that share to the 2026 used-equipment market gives ~USD 71.3B for fleet and heavy equipment remarketing. Growth potential (CAGR) is aligned with Mordor’s used-construction-equipment forecast (5.63% for 2026–2031). Additional cited telematics and fleet-management forecasts (MarketsandMarkets, Credence) indicate faster digital services growth that may support above-market expansion of online remarketing and auction channels, but the primary numeric estimate uses the used-equipment market and dealer/auction channel share from Mordor.
