For many companies transportation of goods is the highest operational supply chain expense. It is not uncommon that transportation costs represent 50% or more of the supply chain spending. Despite transportation rates being volatile, the all-time low prices over the last years will not be the standard for the future. For example the annual gross rate increase (GRI) from 2018 to 2019 in European road freight was 6%.
