Market Growth Factors

Because Spain sits geographically as a logistics hub among Europe, Africa, and the Americas, and because Spain invested strongly into its port infrastructure, its 3PL sector benefited. In 2024, 6% more goods were handled at Spanish ports on account of trade being diverted from the Red Sea because of geopolitical developments. Traffic went up thirteen percent in Las Palmas and nine percent in Barcelona, the country's largest ports. During January 2025, the Port of Alicante handled its best monthly container volume in 25 years with a 48% increase because of terminal operators TMS and JSV. These infrastructure developments have attracted international shippers and helped 3PL growth.

The Spanish pharmaceutical market grows quickly with an expected revenue by 2023 of 32 billion euros. There is increasing demand for specialized services related to temperature-controlled and regulatory-compliant logistic supply chains. Spain shows key player status within international supply chains with over €21.80 billion in pharmaceutical exports in 2023. This causes 3PLs to implement technologies such as automated warehouses and Internet of Things monitoring systems for quality and safety during product transportation and storage.

Market growth is expected because of e-commerce demand, supply chain efficiency improvements, and environmental sustainability initiatives in total. Just-in-time inventory management with nearshoring are improving logistics efficiency. The market is driven by government investments in logistics infrastructure and digital transformation initiatives supporting the adoption of 3PL services in an increasingly large range of end user verticals.
