Air Freight Services industry in Australia Industry Market Research Report Now Available from IBISWorld
PRWeb - Sat Feb 07, 1:01PM CST
Revenue for operators in the Air Freight Services industry in Australia has grown at a compound annual 3.2% over the past five years, to be worth an estimated $3.3 billion in 2014-15. The industry has continued to recover from poor conditions, following the financial crisis, which rocked the global aviation industry and suppressed demand for freight services. In 2014-15, industry revenue is expected to grow by 2.8%, aided by strong inbound freight volumes. According to IBISWorld industry analyst Ryan Lin, "the majority of industry activity relates to international freight and mail services." Over the past five years, the industry's performance has strengthened due to increased global trade volumes, supported by successive global and bilateral trade agreements. In addition, advances in communications technology have expanded the scope of international trade in goods and services. Both trends have led to shifts in demand for industry services. Consumers in Australia are taking to the internet to purchase a large range of goods, many of which require air freight services for delivery.
