Advantages of same-day delivery include enhanced customer satisfaction, increased operational efficiency, reduced shipping costs, heightened customer trust, and decreased vehicle expenses.
Same-day delivery services come in several types, including Business-to-Business (B2B), Business-to-Consumer (B2C), and Customer to Customer (C2C). B2B transactions involve the exchange of products between two or more businesses, such as producers, distributors, and retailers. Various service types, such as international and domestic, utilize modes like airways, roadways, railways, and intermodal transportation. This service is applicable across different sectors, including retail, e-commerce, healthcare, manufacturing, and other industries.

The same-day delivery services market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $9.4 billion in 2024 to $11.34 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise of e-commerce and online shopping, increased consumer demand for faster deliveries, advances in logistics and supply chain, competitive pressure among retailers to offer quick shipping, urbanization and concentration of population in metropolitan areas.
The same-day delivery services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $23.29 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth of on-demand and instant delivery services, integration of autonomous vehicles and drones for deliveries, expansion of last-mile delivery networks, rising consumer expectations for same-day and time-definite deliveries, adoption of advanced route optimization and tracking solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include collaboration between e-commerce platforms and delivery services, emergence of dark stores and micro-fulfillment centers, integration of artificial intelligence in delivery route planning, focus on sustainable and eco-friendly delivery options, increased use of data analytics for demand forecasting and inventory management.
The growth of the e-commerce industry is expected to fuel the expansion of the same-day delivery services market. The e-commerce sector has revolutionized the buying and selling of goods and is experiencing rapid growth due to factors such as increased population density and urbanization, the widespread use of smartphones and tablets, improved internet access, the adoption of digital payment methods, quicker purchasing options, reduced costs, minimized travel expenses and time, and overall convenience. As same-day delivery becomes a more common shipping option for online shoppers, the demand for these services is on the rise. For instance, in November 2023, the International Trade Administration, a US Department of Commerce entity, reported that as of January 2021, consumer e-commerce accounted for 36.3% of the total retail market in the UK, with revenue projected to reach $285.60 billion by 2025. Thus, the development of the e-commerce industry is driving the growth of the same-day delivery services market.
The ongoing trend of urbanization is playing a substantial role in propelling the same-day delivery services market forward. Urbanization, characterized by the concentration of the population in cities and the expansion of urban areas, facilitates same-day delivery service providers in streamlining their logistical routes, reducing operational costs, and expanding the potential for same-day delivery of various goods. According to data released by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) in July 2023, the global urban population is expected to increase by 1. 5 times, reaching 6 billion by 2045. This surge in urbanization is projected to drive the growth of the same-day delivery services market.
Key players in the same-day delivery services market are concentrating on developing advanced technologies, such as air drone delivery systems, to meet the rising demand for the prompt delivery of goods and services. For example, in October 2023, Amazon.com, Inc., a US-based e-commerce company, unveiled its MK30 drone design. This new drone is quieter, smaller, and lighter than its predecessors. It includes advanced safety systems that facilitate safer flights in diverse weather conditions. Additionally, the drone's improved efficiency allows for quicker and more precise deliveries for Amazon customers.
Leading companies in the same-day delivery services market are focusing on the development of environmentally conscious and sustainable delivery operations, particularly in the realm of small parcel delivery. Small parcel delivery involves shipping individual packages weighing less than 70 pounds through regular carriers. For example, in September 2022, GoBolt, a Canada-based logistics company, launched a sustainable small parcel delivery service in Canada and the United States. Previously specializing in last-mile services for large, bulky deliveries, GoBolt expanded into small parcel delivery following its acquisition of BoxKnight. The company now collects, combines, sorts, and delivers smaller packages from e-commerce brands.
In May 2022, United Parcel Service (UPS), a US-based door-to-door delivery service provider, acquired Delivery Solutions for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition enhances UPS's portfolio with Delivery Solutions' technology platform for same-day delivery services, ship-from-store capabilities, and distribution center solutions.
