COVD-19 Impact Analysis on Refrigerated Road Transportation Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the global economy and halted the key processes of almost all companies. Therefore, even the global refrigerated road transportation market suffered due to it. The disturbances in supply chain management and transportation of goods and services had a negative impact on the growth of the market. Many manufacturing and production units were disrupted due to the government enforced lockdowns and curfews across the world which led to losses and wastage of many products. The automobile industry, of which refrigerated road transportation is a part, also faced losses during the pandemic. Halted production of raw materials affected the production of refrigerated trailers and refrigerated vans. The pandemic also significantly changed the consumer demand and behaviour. Consumers refrained from purchasing non-essential products amid the pandemic thereby impacting the sales of refrigerated products. The uncertain and unexpected situation caused by the pandemic significantly impacted the market hence, slowing its growth. However, the post-pandemic scene has improved and the global refrigerated road transportation market has recovered. The market is set to grow at a high rate.

Refrigerated Road Transportation Market Segmentation

By Vehicle Type, the global Refrigerated Road Transportation Market is segmented into Refrigerated trailers, and Refrigerated vans

Refrigerated trailers have higher dominance in the application segment of Refrigerated Road Transportation as the trailers are bigger in size and are used to transfer shipment from ship to warehouses. They are the most popular mode of transporting food and beverages as they have temperature regulation machines. For longer distances of transportation and a greater number of transfer load, the refrigerated trailers are better than refrigerated vans. However, due to rising supermarket and hypermarket in the cities, the requirement of refrigerated vans also becomes convenient to carry frozen food from warehouses to their markets because of the compact sizes. Hence refrigerated vans market will also grow at a high CAGR for the forecasted period.

By Application, the global Refrigerated Road Transportation Market is segmented into Chilled food, and Frozen food

Frozen food has the dominant position in the Refrigerated Road Transportation market of Application Type segment due to rising demand for frozen food such as bakery products, ice cream, processed meat, frozen dairy products, and fish & seafood. Frozen foods are easier to handle and are also in more demand than chilled food. Also, the rising fresh food demand and the shipment item delivery in cities will drive the market for refrigerated road transportation in the forecast period.
