Research Methodology
Step 1: Ecosystem Creation
Map the logistics and warehousing ecosystem and identify all key demand-side (e.g., e-commerce companies, manufacturers, FMCG firms) and supply-side entities (e.g., 3PLs, freight forwarders, warehouse developers) operating in the Romania Logistics and Warehousing Market. Based on this ecosystem, we shortlist 5–6 leading logistics providers in the country based on parameters such as fleet size, warehouse capacity, geographic reach, service offerings, and financial performance.
Sourcing is conducted through industry publications, European logistics databases, Romanian government portals, logistics trade associations, and proprietary secondary sources to gather macro-level market information.
Step 2: Desk Research
An exhaustive desk research process is undertaken using both secondary and proprietary databases. This includes studying market reports, trade articles, investor presentations, company websites, Eurostat logistics datasets, and industry publications to assess the size, segmentation, and key dynamics of the market.
We evaluate company-level data such as revenue, warehouse capacity, freight volumes, and service diversification using public disclosures, press releases, and media coverage. The objective is to establish a foundational understanding of the industry landscape, key operational indicators, regulatory environment, and emerging trends in Romania.
Step 3: Primary Research
A series of structured interviews are conducted with senior executives (CEOs, supply chain heads, logistics managers) and operational stakeholders from key logistics companies, warehouse operators, 3PL users (e-commerce, FMCG, pharma), and industry experts across Romania.
These discussions serve to validate market assumptions, gather granular insights on warehousing practices, freight pricing models, technology adoption, and supply-demand shifts. A bottom-up approach is used to estimate freight volumes, warehouse throughput, and regional share, which is then extrapolated to the national market level.
As part of our triangulation strategy, we also conduct mystery shopping (disguised interviews) with selected 3PL and warehousing service providers to verify operational claims and pricing benchmarks. This helps us validate insights from primary sources against what is observed in practice.
Step 4: Sanity Check
- A combination of top-down and bottom-up modeling is employed to validate market size estimates and cross-check segment-level assumptions. Sensitivity testing is done on key variables such as GDP, e-commerce penetration, warehouse absorption rate, and international trade volumes to assess model robustness. Final outputs are validated against known financial benchmarks and shipment statistics.
