The global ecommerce market, projected to surpass USD 6 trillion by 2030, has redefined how businesses interact with consumers. At the heart of this transformation lies logistics, a critical enabler of speed, convenience, and customer satisfaction. Yet, despite its importance, logistics remains one of the biggest cost and efficiency challenges for ecommerce players worldwide.
Rising delivery costs, fragmented supply chains, pressure for faster fulfillment, and the growing demand for sustainable logistics practices are reshaping how businesses operate. In fact, logistics expenses can account for as much as 20–25% of ecommerce revenues in certain markets, directly impacting profitability.
To overcome these challenges, leading ecommerce firms are turning to logistics benchmarking, a structured way to measure operations against industry leaders. Benchmarking provides actionable insights that help businesses build resilience, improve sustainability, and achieve long-term digital growth.
