There are three main types of freight brokerage: domestic, international, and cross-border. Our analysis finds that the domestic freight brokerage market is the largest and most stable, accounting for over 54% of the global revenue. This is due in part to the large number of domestic shipping routes as well as strong demand from traditional shippers such as wholesalers and manufacturers. Nevertheless, international freight brokerage has seen faster growth in recent years, due to increasing demand from e-commerce companies and other fast-growing sectors such as transportation and logistics. This growth is expected to continue over the next seven years.

Global Freight Volume Reached 658.9 Billion Tons in Global Freight Brokerage Market

Overall, global freight volumes increased by 2.6% in 2021, reaching 658.9 billion tons., However, this growth rate was slower than in previous years. The main reasons for this slowdown were decreased demand from Asia and Europe, together accounting for two-thirds of total global trade. In contrast, North America saw strong growth overall, with freight volumes increasing by 7.7% in 2021. This was mainly due to strong growth in container traffic (+14%), despite overall decrease in cargo transport by highways (-5%) and rail (-2%) in the global freight brokerage market.

This demonstrates the importance of shipping by containers in the corridors connecting major markets across North America. Elsewhere in the world, freight volumes increased by 2% compared to 2019 levels – however this still lags behind the growth rates seen in recent years. This might be explained by weak demand from China and Europe, as well as a drop in transatlantic trade (-5%). Looking ahead, SkyQuest expects that global freight volumes will grow by 3% annually over the next five years.
