The e-commerce sector in the region grew at a CAGR of 37% during 2017-22, driving the growth of the market

  • Domestic courier services are becoming increasingly important in the e-commerce industry. The pandemic brought a drastic change in shopping behavior over the past years, shifting the shopping process worldwide toward online shopping. During 2017-2022, the e-commerce sector in the region registered a CAGR of 37.71%. The development of the e-commerce sector is expected to contribute to the growth of the domestic courier services market. Moreover, the demand for domestic couriers has been increasing as the luxury retail markets in Southeast Asia have been growing due to a combination of demographics, increasing wealth, and their rapid emergence from the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The manufacturing sector requires scheduled delivery solutions for various purposes. Courier service for the manufacturing sector facilitates the collection of products, such as electronics and hardware, and delivers them to the main facility for processing. Some of the major courier players offering courier services for the manufacturing sector include Deutsche Post DHL Group, Vietnam Post Corporation (VNPost), Viettel Post, Two Four Seven Joint Stock Company (247Post), and Vietstar Express Joint Stock Company.
  • During 2017-2022, the medical devices market recorded a CAGR of 6.52% and reached USD 10.02 billion in 2022. The pandemic has also accelerated the region's demand for express delivery services for healthcare equipment. The growth of domestic courier services for medical devices in ASEAN is driven by a combination of increasing demand for healthcare services, advancements in logistics technology, and the growth of healthcare e-commerce. As a result, the ASEAN domestic courier market is expected to grow positively during the forecast period.

Malaysia's courier services soar with e-commerce, expected 14.44% CAGR in domestic CEP by 2027

  • The flourishing e-commerce segment in Malaysia has driven significant growth in the local courier services industry, resulting in intense competition among more than 100 service providers operating in the market. As e-commerce user penetration is projected to reach 55% by 2027, the volume of domestic CEP services is also expected to register a CAGR of 14.44% from 2023 to 2027. Consequently, it is anticipated that there will be a substantial increase in the number of courier licenses issued and a rise in the number of domestic CEP service providers to meet the growing demand.
  • In 2020, most products from e-retailers in Thailand (71%) were delivered through their delivery services. Domestic carrier companies accounted for a 63.31% share, and Thailand Post held a 46.75% share. However, Thailand Post increased prices for domestic letter and parcel deliveries in 2022 after 18 years due to inflation. The domestic rates for the 1-2 kg weight bracket rose by 22%, and the delivery rate for letters up to 10 grams was fixed at THB 3 until the end of 2024. Despite these changes, the domestic CEP volume is projected to register a CAGR of 11.96% from 2023 to 2027.
  • The domestic CEP segment has experienced significant growth primarily driven by e-commerce. In 2020, the e-commerce segment saw a YoY increase of 57.76%, reaching USD 35.34 billion, mainly due to remote working and government-imposed social distancing regulations. This trend of online buying remained strong in 2021, with the e-commerce industry growing by 58.43% YoY and reaching USD 55.99 billion. The strong growth in the e-commerce industry is expected to continue during the forecast period and reach USD 88.54 billion by 2025.

ASEAN Domestic Courier Market Trends

Government Policies Helping the Transportation Sector Recover

  • In 2022, the transportation and storage sector saw a substantial 26.80% YoY growth, primarily attributed to the rising demand for transportation infrastructure. The economic growth in ASEAN nations over recent decades has boosted trade and investment activities, consequently increasing the need for transportation and storage services to facilitate the movement and storage of goods. Malaysia has made significant strides in enhancing its logistics industry to position itself as a regional logistics hub and an ASEAN gateway.
  • The MRT3 is the last critical route to complete the Kuala Lumpur urban rail network, and the line is 50.8 km long and runs around Kuala Lumpur's outskirts. Construction is expected to begin in early 2023 and is slated for full completion by 2030, while operations for the first phase are expected to commence in 2028. In August 2017, the ECRL began constructing a double-track railway linking the infrastructure project. It is expected to include 20 stations with 14 passenger stations, five combined passenger and freight stations, and one freight station. The project is expected to be operational in January 2027 and is anticipated to transport 5.6 million passengers annually by transporting 440 passengers in six carriages.
  • Logistics expenses can contribute up to 20% of the price of finished goods in some ASEAN member countries, which is nearly double the global average. The economies of member states are also expected to grow if regulations controlling foreign direct investment in the logistics industry are reevaluated. In the medium to long run, lowering trade and FDI restrictions is expected to increase GDP by up to 17%.

Impact of Ukraine-Russia war on ASEAN countries led to rising fuel prices and supply chain disruptions

  • The YoY growth of natural gas prices was recorded at 34.3%, and the YoY growth of gasoline prices stood at 12.8% in 2021. With the rising fuel costs, trucking carriers and operators across the region are struggling to keep up with the increasing prices, and the cost of diesel is affecting freight rates and trucking capacity. Many of the current measures in Southeast Asia were implemented in response to the energy market dynamics in the second half of 2021 and are yet to incorporate the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war.
  • The price of diesel has gradually fallen since February 2023 to 32 baht (USD 0.92) a litre, in response to declining global oil prices. Thailand’s Oil Fuel Fund has decided to maintain the current retail price of diesel at USD 1.01 per liter, in an attempt to help mitigate the high living cost amidst global oil price fluctuations. As part of Malaysia's goal to construct the oil refining and storage hub to meet the domestic demand for refined petroleum products, Petronas has invested about USD 16 billion in the Refining and Petrochemicals Integrated Development Project (RAPID) in Johor. The RAPID facility will be the country's first refinery to produce diesel and gasoline that meet the Euro V standard, which lowers carbon dioxide emission levels.
  • In an effort to reduce growing subsidies, the Indonesian government increased the prices of subsidised fuel by approximately 30% in September 2022, despite the potential risk of mass protests. The price of subsidised gasoline was raised from 7,650 rupiahs (USD 0.49) per litre to 10,000 rupiahs (USD 0.67) per litre, while the price of subsidised diesel rose from 5,150 rupiahs (USD 0.35) per litre to 6,800 rupiahs (USD 0.46) per litre.

Keyword Definition
Axle Load The axle load refers to the total load (weight) bearing on the roadway through wheels connected to a given axle. Across the globe, there are systems in place to ensure axle load monitoring, wherein surpassing the defined limits set by the concerned regulatory authority can lead to penalty/fine. For transportation of goods via road this can be an important determinant of costs as knowledge about the axle load limits can be used to (i) load the vehicle optimally for maximizing profits (ii) avoid exceeding the same and hence the probable fines associated (iii) avoid wear and tear of the vehicle (iv) avoid damage to pavement resulting in noticeable public maintenance and repair costs (v) achieve better turnaround time.
Back Haul Backhaul is the return movement of a transport vehicle from its original destination to its original point of departure, and can include full, partial, or empty truck loads (all or part of the way) depending on the visibility of the local freight ecosystem. In this regard, transportation of empty containers to the point of origin, known as deadheading is also a significant factor, considering the supply/container shortages across the geographies, resulting in cost escalation and under optimized profit potential attainment. Generally, the carriers offer discounts on the backhaul, to secure freight for the trip.
Bill of Lading (BOL) A bill of lading is a legal contract document issued by a carrier to a shipper to acknowledge reception of their cargo, and is evidence for the contract of carriage between the two parties. Broadly it details the (i) type, quantity, and other specifications of the goods being carried (ii) destination, and terms & conditions of the shipment (iii) carrier and drivers with all the necessary information to process the shipment, which can be used for insurance and customs clearance purposes (iv) assurance that the consignment is damage-free and ready to be shipped to the consignee. In this regard, a house bill of lading (HBL) is a document issued by a freight forwarder or a non-vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC) to acknowledge receipt of items for shipment (to a shipper). If shipments from several shippers are involved a master bill of lading (MBL) might be involved which is a consolidated version of the same for all the shipments being taken care of by the carrier (to a common destination) and might be issued by the carrier to the freight forwarder or the shipper (depending on who books the transport).
Bunkering Bunkering is the process of supplying fuel to power the propulsion system of a ship. It includes the logistics of loading and distributing the fuel among available shipboard tanks. In this regard, (i) Bunker fuel is technically any type of fuel oil used aboard ships.

Bunkering is signficant from point of view of freight rates applicable to the shipper as Bunker Contribution (BUC)/ Fuel Adjustment Factor (FAF)/ Bunker Adjustment Factor (BAF) are applied by shipping lines to offset the effect of fluctuations in the cost of bunkers.
Cabotage Transport by a vehicle registered in a country, performed on the national territory of another country. Cabotage law may restrict domestic cargo traffic to be carried in its own nationally registered, and sometimes built and crewed vehicles, though regulations vary across industries/commodity groups/countries and sometimes specify maximum allowable percentage of cabotage that can be serviced by foreign registered fleet.
C-commerce Collaborative commerce (also known as C-commerce), (i) describes electronically enabled business interactions among an enterprise’s internal personnel, business partners and customers throughout a trading community (industry, industry segment, supply chain or supply chain segment); (ii) is the optimization of supply and distribution channels to capitalize on the global economy by using new technology efficiently. Advantages of C-commerce, to detail few include (i) maximization of organization's efficiency and profitability (ii) technology integration with physical channels to allow companies to work together (iii) increased information exchange such as inventory and product specifications, using the web as an intermediary (iv) increased competitiveness by reaching a broader audience. Examples of C-commerce, also known as peer-to-peer commerce, include (i) companies that allow consumers to rent things from each other, or marketplaces, such as Meta (formerly Facebook) Marketplace, that allow the sale of used goods; (ii) DoorDash teamed up with many national brands, such as McDonald’s and Chipotle, to offer fast food delivery, building their business model on c-commerce. They have since expanded their delivery service from restaurants to retailers and even offer 'fleets' of drivers to businesses.
Courier A business/company that delivers packages/parcels/shipments (upto 70 kgs) including quick door to door pickup and delivery service for goods or documents, domestically or internationally, on a commercial contract basis. Example, DHL Group, FedEx, United Parcel Service of America, Inc., USPS, International Distributions Services, J&T Express, SF Express among several others
Cross docking Cross docking is a practice in logistics management that includes unloading incoming delivery vehicles and loading the materials directly into outbound delivery vehicles, omitting traditional warehouse logistical practices and saving time and money. It requires close synchronization of both inbound and outbound movements. It is highly significant in reduction of costs pertaining to warehousing & storage (and the associated Value Added Services).
Cross Trade International transport between two different countries performed by a vehicle registered in a third country. A third country is a country other than the country of loading/embarkation and the country of unloading/disembarkation. Cross Trade law may restrict international cargo traffic to be carried by respective country's registered vehicles, and sometimes built and crewed vehicles, though regulations vary across industries/commodity groups/countries and sometimes specify maximum allowable percentage of cross trade that can be serviced by foreign registered fleet.
Customs Clearance The process of declaring and clearing cargoes through customs. It includes the procedures involved in getting cargo released by Customs through designated formalities such as presenting import license/permit, payment of import duties and other required documentations by the nature of the cargo. In this regard, a customs broker is a person or company licensed by the respective department of the country to act on behalf of freight importers and exporters.
Dangerous Goods Dangerous goods (or hazardous materials or HAZMAT) include flammable liquids/solids, gases (compressed, liquified, dissolved under pressure), corrosives, oxidising substances, explosive substances and articles, substances which on contact with water emit flammable gasses, organic peroxides, toxic substances, infectious substances, radioactive materials, miscellaneous dangerous goods and articles.
First mile Delivery First mile delivery refers to the (i) first stage of the freight/shipment/cargo/courier transportation (ii) the transportation of goods from a merchant’s premises or warehouse to the next fulfillment centre/warehouse/hub from where the goods are forwarded (iii) shipping goods from local distribution centers to stores (For retailers) (iv) transportation of finished goods from a plant or a factory to a distribution center (For manufacturers), (v) pick up of goods from the end-customer’s home or store followed by movement to a warehouse or storage location (movers and packers), (vi) process where goods are picked up from a retailer and then transferred to third-party logistics providers or courier service providers to be delivered to the end-consumer (e-commerce). Once the package reaches the next warehouse or the courier’s hub, it is then sorted and transported further until it reaches the customer’s doorstep. Example, if one chooses UPS as a courier, first-mile delivery will be the product being delivered from manufacturer's/retailer's warehouse to the UPS’s warehouse/ fulfilment centre.
Last Mile Delivery Last mile delivery refers to the very last step of the delivery process when a parcel is moved from a transportation hub (warehouse or a distribution center or fulfillment centre) to its final destination, which usually is a personal residence/retail store/ business, or parcel locker. It accounts for around half of the total cost involved in entire process of first mile, middle mile, and last mile delivery, though it can vary shipment to shipment, based on commodity, business model and similar factors.
Milkrun A Milk Run is a delivery method used to transport mixed loads from various suppliers to one customer, using lean management principles applied to logistics. Instead of each supplier sending a truck every week to meet the needs of one customer, one truck (or vehicle) visits the suppliers to pick up the loads for that customer. This method of transport got its name from the dairy industry practice, where one tanker used to collect milk from several dairy farms for delivery to a milk processing company. A milk run can be a more efficient way to handle logistics but require proper planning. If the route involves products from different companies, there is need for an agreement about cost-sharing and other aspects of the cooperative delivery arrangement. Once the group settles these issues, this delivery method can save time and money for everyone by pooling operation costs and resources.
Multi country consolidation ​​Multi-Country Consolidation (MCC) is a cost-effective solution that consolidates one's cargo from different countries of origin to build Full Container Loads (FCL). MCC is most suitable for companies that import light volumes of goods from multiple countries but want to take advantage o​​f the more economic FCL freight rates. Apart from costing some of the other advantages include (i) flexibility to choose suppliers from a wider range of origin countries without worrying about the logistics to final destination from each origin, (ii) ability to pick the most suitable suppliers from many different countries for one's business operations. The increase in one's sourcing options by MCC provides the kind of flexibility needed in competitive global markets.
Q-commerce Q-commerce, also referred to as quick commerce, is a type of e-commerce where emphasis is on quick deliveries, typically in less than an hour. The companies providing Q-Commerce services might have vertically intergrated model or might be using third party delivery platforms (outsourced logistics). It has advantages like (i) competitve USP, (ii) potential to earn greater profit margins, (iii) better customer experience, (iv) guaranteed availability of products, (v) traceability, and (vi) scaleability.
ReverseLogistics Reverse logistics is a type of supply chain management that moves goods from customers back to the sellers or manufacturers and may involve ciruclar economy principles (3Rs) viz. recycling, reuse (repurposing, reselling), reducing or repairing. In this regard, reverse commerce (or Recommerce) is the selling of previously owned items through physical or online marketplaces/distribution channels to buyers who reuse, recycle or resell them.
