London, 23 September 2014: TechNavio, an independent tech-focused global research firm, announced today the publication of its market research report on the Third Party Logistics (3PL) Market in Japan 2014-2018.   Adoption of advanced technologies is streamlining the entire process and enabling vendors to improve effectiveness and efficiency. The dominance of integrators is facilitating the provision of all services by a single vendor and is having a positive effect on the marketplace.

Thus, 3PL providers typically specialize in transportation, warehousing, and integrated operation services, which are customized according to customer needs.

“Big data and analytics in the market offers the potential to access huge volumes of data generated by multifaceted supply chains, empowering 3PL providers and customers to leverage the data and achieve improved efficiency and effectiveness,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio Research.
