New Report Examines the Trends in the Slovakian Road Transport Industry

Posted on: Monday, 19 November 2007, 12:00 CST

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c74772) has announced the addition of "Road Transport in Slovakia" to their offering.

Comprehensive analysis of surveys with road transport professionals to identify the major financial and performance trends and forecasts in Slovakia

Road Transport in Slovakia is a country specific report extracted from The European Transport Barometer - the result of possibly the largest collaborative effort ever undertaken in researching the European Road Transport sector.

The result of research conducted with the assistance of Truck Europe and affiliated local trade magazines across Europe, the European Transport Barometer brings together analysis from over 1,200 surveys, across 18 countries to provide a true pan-European perspective of trends and developments in the Road Transport industry.

The last year has been a challenging year for the road transport industry. Despite economic growth and lengthening supply chains, margins are being continually squeezed. For fleet operators increases in volumes and revenues do not necessarily correlate with increases in profit or margins.

As many operators have been telling us, increasing insurance premiums, road congestion, driver shortages, customer price sensitivity and of course, the rocketing fuel price, all impact on the bottom line.

This country specific road transport report is ideally suited to meet the needs of any professional within the supply chain industry. More importantly, the data contained can be used to draw conclusions that can be applied to either process or strategic planning with the absolute confidence that the data originates from a source that is a consistent, reliable and specialist within the supply chain industry.

Report methodology

In partnership with leading industry trade magazines across Europe, we undertook extensive primary research in order to obtain the core data for this report series. The information obtained was of both a quantitative and qualitative nature.

This is integral to the utility of the report, as it contains opinion of informed individuals in the UK road transport industry that can be supported with evidence generated from the quantitative data obtained from such a large-scale survey.
