This majorly domestic market provides different services in the market with the three categories being warehousing, transportation, and other services, which include pick-up points, drop-off points, cash on delivery, and exchange or return. The largest segment in the market is that of transportation services, with the segment covering almost 70% of the total market in the year of 2021, followed by warehousing and then the other segment. The warehousing segment and other services are significantly higher compared to some other countries because of the highly dense road and railway network which connect the country and give access to all of Europe because of which warehousing services are in the market along with the provision of other services like returns and exchange. A warehouse should be placed in a location giving access to easy delivery and order management. The mode of transport used by these logistics companies is also a segment consisting of road, rail, sea, and air categories, out of which the majority of the market share goes to the road transport mode. This segment holds the majority due to the fact that every end-to-end logistics service almost always ends up on road transport because no other mode of transport can deliver goods to the consumer at their door step. This inevitable use of the category in the market helps it sustain its market presence even in the future. The market in Spain is driven by higher investment pouring in, which is the result of the country's excellent geographical location. Along with the rising global trends in the use of e-commerce and the shifting of buying behaviour online from luxurious items to everyday average items, increasing the buying frequency has led to an increase in the logistics operations of the country. The market is also experiencing obstacles in terms of sustainability where 25% of the total pollution in the country is contributed by freight transport and a little over 20% of the urban traffic is caused by the same. This was accompanied by the COVID-19 Pandemic in recent times, where the supply chain faced problems keeping up the production due to lockdowns and other restrictions, with freight transportation also being affected. The pandemic on the other hand aided in the shift of consumers to e-commerce, resulting in an increase in demand for e-commerce logistics.
