The situation greatly accelerated consolidation and digitalization of logistics. The World Economic Forum estimates that 20% of the $9 trillion worth of goods traded annually is spent on administration. Covid-19 has forced intermodal transport to quickly adopt 3PL (third-party logistics) services, forcing fiercely competitive incompatibility at rival ports to give way to digital collaboration. DP World in Dubai, for example, developed a fully integrated logistics service on the India-Europe trade lane by acquiring logistics feeder operators, according to The Loadstar. "This integrated offering will solve complex logistics challenges for customers using seamless combinations of DP World's global maritime and logistics footprint and P&O's expanding pan-European network of warehouses and integrated road, rail and sea links," according to DP World.
