U.S. Postal Automation Systems Market Growth & Trends

The U.S. postal automation systems market size is anticipated to reach USD 352.9 million by 2030 and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth is attributable to the increasing need for automation in delivery and sorting processes in the U.S.

The growing significance of faster delivery to save time and labor costs in different industries is positively influencing the market outlook. Moreover, the growth of e-commerce and globalization are expected to create opportunities for the U.S. postal automation systems market over the forecast period. The expansion of e-commerce companies has strengthened the overall market outlook with the heightened adoption of postal automation systems to simplify the mail processing chain, improve service quality, and reduce fixed costs such as labor. A considerable rise in parcel shipping activities across the U.S. is creating lucrative opportunities for the market. According to the annual parcel shipping index report by Pitney Bowes Inc., 21.2 billion parcels were shipped, received, and returned across the country in 2022. The volume is expected to reach 28 billion by 2028.

With the increased globalization and the expansion of the e-commerce sector, individuals and businesses expect faster and more flexible delivery of goods at minimal cost. As a result, the logistics industry is largely focusing on streamlining and optimizing its supply chain operations. In this regard, automation offers greater potential to transform the logistics industry by providing businesses the new levels of efficiency, flexibility, and accuracy. The companies operating in this industry are investing in automation technologies such as transportation management systems, warehouse management systems, and robots to automate various tasks across the supply chain. The increasing consumer preference for online shopping and the need to handle vast volumes of goods have urged several companies to invest in automation solutions that can facilitate efficient logistics operations. For instance, in May 2023, FedEx announced the acquisition of 12 parcel-sorting robotic arms from Plus One Robotics and Yaskawa Motoman and deployed them at its Express sorting facility in Tennessee. The technology used in these depalletizing arms will enable smooth and efficient movement of goods from palleted shipments across the facility. Such initiatives to optimize the operations and supply chains across the logistics sector will positively influence market growth over the coming years.
