The report segments the market by service type, infrastructure type, deployment model, and end use.

Cloud Service Providers Hold a Dominant Position

By end use, cloud service providers held a dominant position in 2025. Their large-scale capacity programs generate sustained demand for transport, staging, and installation support. The report does not publish a numeric share for this segment, but the lead underlines how closely logistics demand follows cloud infrastructure investment.

Colocation Providers Are the Fastest-Growing End Users

Colocation providers are projected to record the fastest CAGR among end users, while enterprises and other end users are also covered by the segmentation. The European Data Centre Association reports that colocation data centers contributed nearly USD 59.9 billion to Europe's GDP in 2025, a measure of the sector's economic weight. Logistics suppliers that serve colocation operators can benefit from steady expansion across multiple regions.

AI Infrastructure Deployment Drives Demand

AI infrastructure deployment is a primary driver identified in the report. In June 2025, Schneider Electric launched data center technologies for high-density AI and accelerated computing, covering power distribution, cooling, and infrastructure management. High-density equipment is heavy, valuable, and sensitive, which raises the importance of specialized handling, secure transport, and precise scheduling during deployment.

Semiconductor Supply Chain Disruptions as a Restraint

Semiconductor supply chain disruptions are the key restraint highlighted. The report links them to implementation delays, customs delays, freight fluctuations, and GPU procurement issues. For operators, these disruptions complicate project timelines, while logistics providers that offer visibility, flexible capacity, and strong carrier relationships can help limit their impact.

Customs and Compliance Management

Customs and compliance management forms part of the service-type segmentation, alongside transportation, warehousing and staging, and deployment and installation. The report does not provide figures for this category, but it names customs delays among the risks associated with supply chain disruption. Cross-border movement of high-value equipment makes accurate documentation and regulatory knowledge an important differentiator.

Regional Growth Patterns

North America was the largest region in 2025, with a 41.7% revenue share, and Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing region at a CAGR of 9.7% during 2026–2034. In March 2026, Digital Realty secured USD 3.25 billion in equity commitments for a U.S. hyperscale fund targeting Northern Virginia, Dallas, and Santa Clara. In India, ITA reported in April 2026 more than 650 million smartphone users and over 950 million internet subscribers.

Deployment Models and Logistics Expansion

By deployment model, new infrastructure deployment led the market in 2025, while upgrade and expansion deployment is projected to record the highest CAGR. In March 2026, DHL Group expanded its North American logistics network to serve demand from data centers, semiconductors, health care, and e-commerce, showing how large logistics groups are building dedicated capacity for the sector.

Competitive Landscape

The report names 15 key players, including Amazon.com Inc., C.H. Robinson Worldwide, DHL Supply Chain & Global Forwarding, Equinix, Federal Express Corporation, Flexential, Iron Mountain, Kuehne + Nagel International AG, Logistics Plus Inc., MG Moving Services, Nielsen Logistics, Schneider Electric, UPS Supply Chain Solutions, United Parcel Service of America, and Winning Solutions Inc.

Strategic Outlook

With a 9.1% CAGR through 2034, the data center logistics market favors providers that can manage risk, support cloud and colocation customers, and deliver reliably across regions. Companies that invest in compliance expertise and flexible capacity are well positioned for growth.
